Audi S8?

As I was coming back from the drag races yesterday, (link included it you want to read about my day at the track )

http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/showth...threadid=16126

I was coming off of HWY 37 onto HWY 101 south somewhere in Novato, CA. I still had my shoe polish from stating my dial in #'s from the drag races on my windows, and I saw a Audi coming up in the fast lane. It looked pretty wicked. It was lowered a bit, had wide rims with low profile tires and I thought I saw a FMIC on it, and it didn't look like any Audi I have ever seen. When he went by me, I looked at the rear of the car and saw an S8 badge. I have never seen nor heard of a Audi S8, so I pulled out my camera while driving down the freeway, caught up to him, and snapped the photo below.

Well I wanted to get you guys a side shot, but I think since he saw my window markings he thought I wanted to play with him. So he started to take off and weave in and out of traffic. I didn't want to play, since having window markings like mine are like waving cops over to me for me to pull me over. Enjoy the pic.
