And you get all that A8 size and panache. And 21-inch rims. Responsibly. <\/p>\n<p>All that is certain to cost you come negotiating time: It remains a concept so Audi hasn&#8217;t released a price, but when you&#8217;re talking about getting the moon, it&#8217;s safe to figure it&#8217;ll cost you a few stars.
