What is the Audi A8's resale value?

The table shows broad downward movement across the model years listed, which can work in your favor if you're shopping used. Several years have seen double-digit drops, while the smallest changes are still negative, so the pricing trend is clearly softer across the board.

Should I buy a used Audi A8 now or wait for the next model?
