Okay, so I was messing around online, trying to figure out what a fancy 2019 Audi A8 would have cost when it was brand spanking new. You know, just for fun. I like cars, and the A8 is one of those big, impressive luxury sedans that always catches my eye.
First thing I did was hit up a search engine, nothing fancy. Just typed in something like “2019 Audi A8 original price” and started poking around. I found some information that seems to be written in Japanese, describing the aesthetics and passion of Audi. They also mentioned that this is a flagship model of Audi.
- Search Engine Browsing: I spent a good chunk of time on different websites. Some were just car review sites, others were more like official dealer pages. It was a bit of a mixed bag, to be honest.
Then I saw another piece of information, and this one’s talking about depreciation, taxes, financing, and fuel costs, among other things. It’s all about the “True Cost to Own” for the 2019 Audi A8. I gotta say, those numbers can add up quickly, but hey, it’s a luxury car, right?
I also learned that the 2019 Audi A8 is a pioneer in self-driving cars. The new sedan is packed with technology. This further piqued my curiosity about this car.
Audi A8 is positioned above the A6. In the Audi lineup, the A8 is definitely up there in terms of luxury and price. And it slots above the A6, which is another nice car, but the A8 is definitely a step up.
- Dealer Websites: I made sure to check out a few dealer sites, just to see if they had any old listings or info about the 2019 A8’s original price. Not a lot of luck there, but it was worth a shot.
Finally, I came across some information about the price of the 2025 Audi A8, which has a starting price of $93. I guess this might be a reference point, but it’s not exactly what I was looking for. It did give me a general idea of the price range, though.
Realizing the Price Range
After all that digging, I finally found some solid info. Seems like the 2019 Audi A8, when it first came out, was going for somewhere in the ballpark of eighty to ninety grand. Yeah, that’s a lot of money! But for a top-of-the-line luxury car with all the bells and whistles, it kind of makes sense.
I didn’t actually buy one, of course. This was just me satisfying my curiosity. Still, it was cool to learn about the price and how much these cars go for.
