Bottomline Perky, nimble handling and frisky, refined performance is what separates the 2008 Audi A8 from the rest of the super-sedans. For those who want top technology and comforts without attracting undue attention, the 2009 Lexus 460 is a good choice. Hark! The 2008 Mercedes-Benz S-Class is loaded with top safety and comfort-oriented technologies and is one of the best luxury sedans in the world.
