5k: The Star of Ronin: 2002 Audi S8

If you are a car guy and have never seen the Robert De Niro and Jean Reno classic Ronin (1998) you need to schedule yourself a few hours and pick up a copy on Amazon.  The D2 generation Audi S8 was the feature car that was driven in anger by Skipp Sudduth's nerdy hacker/driver character who insists on getting a custom nitrous system and then hauls the giant sedan through small cobblestone covered French streets.  It is fantastic -- and you can watch most of the S8 scenes in a low res clip on youtube here.  Better yet, you can buy your own 2002 Audi S8 for $6,250 in Cincinnati, OH via craigslist.  Tip from FuelTruck.
