Audi A8
Introduced in 1996 as Audi's top-level sedan, the A8 will cost you around $65,000 well-equipped.  However, well-equipped means everything that you can think of.  This is actually a very good deal, considering that a similar BMW or Mercedes would cost you around $80 or $90,000.  As with most marques, Audi's top level sedan comes with an engine not found in any other of the company's sedans, a V8 in this case, but a V12 in most cases.  All stats provided are for the A8 sedan with front-wheel drive, and the standard V8 engine.  Suggested alternatives for the A8 include the BMW 5 or 7-series, the Jaguar XJ8, the Mercedes E or S-classes, or the Lexus LS400.
