A8 vs S8 visual difference

[jazzyjay18]

What are some quick visual ques to know the difference between the A8 and S8 besides the front bumper. Is the dash or start up different?

Some that come to mind...

Speedo dials are italicized
S8 logo in the dial
Not sure about MMI startup screen but I assume driver computer screen will say S8 during startup
Likely to have carbon trim as opposed to wood
S8 logo in grill instead of quattro
V8T logo on fender
Many will have silver capped mirrors if not black from black optic package
S8 will always be short wheelbase while many A8s are long wheelbase
S8 standard wheel is typically more sporty, e.g., rotor style

2x2 exhaust and different rear bumper. Probably larger tires as S8 comes with 20s as standard.

MMI does say S8, yes.
Carbon trim was standard in my country, didn't pay extra.

On the S8, the spoiler under the front bumper and plastic piece around the ACC sensors on the front bumper have chrome trim. On the A8 both pieces are black.
