find of the day: Stateside ’73 Audi 100 Coupé S Project

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="103668"] Even in Europe where it was actually sold, the C1 Audi 100 Coupé S is an obscure find. Here in North America, it's even more unknown given its age and having never been sold here. A few have been imported, though maybe less than five, which makes finding one on Facebook Marketplace in Pensacola, FL an extra special treat. Effectively, the Coupé S was the first model launched in the modern (read: post war) Audi era. At the time, I...

find of the day: Misano Red Audi exclusive A4 allroad on BaT

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="103309"] If you remember the time before the RS 6 arrived in the USA, then you probably remember the weight carried by the A4 allroad. It was Audi's sole remaining long roof, so enthusiasts desperate for a cool Avant found themselves placing a high degree of importance on it. Audi exclusive paint with unique or more sporting colors was a popular go-to for owners seeking a little something extra. Cars like the 2017 A4 allroad you see here are e...

find of the day: Audi exclusive Matador Red SQ8 in Texas

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="103112"] The Audi SQ8 holds this interesting place in the Audi lineup, one that we liken most perhaps to the original ("ur") Audi S6. Like those '90s era Audi S-cars, then the top of the heap without RS models up and down the range, it's a total wolf in sheep's clothing with its de-tuned version of the RS Q8's 4.0 TFSI biturbo V8 and yet largely plain-jane Q8 appearance. For those seeking a sleeper, it's the perfect undercover car... even when...

find of the day: Audi exclusive Kyalami Green Q3

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="102624"] On the more affordable of the modern Audi spectrum is the Q3, Ingolstadt's smallest crossover based on the same MQB modular transverse architecture as the A3. Audi exclusive examples of the Q3 are rare, especially in attention-grabbing hues like this Kyalami Green example we found at University Audi Lynnwood. The car in question is a 2023 S line Premium Plus specimen, so definitely specced by an enthusiast. It's logged 7,485 miles ...

find of the day: Is this Audi exclusive SQ5 Goodwood Green?

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="102619"] On the downside, we aren't positive what green is. On the upside, it's not District Green as it's listed on Audi McKinney's website. We're guessing though that it's the very sought-after Goodwood Green, and are positive it's an Audi exclusive special paint option. Here's what else we know. The car (VIN WA1C4AFY7P2118611) is a 2023 and listed as an SQ5 Premium and has logged 18,523 miles. It's also a Certified Pre-Owned, meaning ext...

find of the day: Hoonitron Wheel to Benefit Lucy Block’s 43 Institute

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="93847"] Normally we feature cars in our find of the day series, but occasionally when we see a stand out part, piece of automobilia, etc., we deviate and make an exception. That's especially the case when the sale of the item benefits a good cause. It's for that reason we feel the need to draw your attention to an auction launched by Lucy Block and the 43 Institute via Ebay Motors. Effectively, it's a mix of Ken Block memorabilia. We've inc...

find of the day: Highly Unique Audi exclusive S5 Coupe

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="99056"] If you're looking for a unique GT with four rings on the hood, this 2023 Audi S5 may fit the tune. What began as a well optioned Audi exclusive Vegas Yellow example went even further down the performance path when Audi Wilmington's Sam Brandes bought it as his personal car and then began to apply upgrades. Check out the listing at Audi Wilmington's website and you'll find the basics on the factory build. That was just the start thou...

find of the day: B8 A4 Avant with V8 Manual Swap

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="98896"] If you're lamenting the bygone era of big displacement and manual transmissions, then this 2010 Audi A4 Avant may be just the thing you've been waiting for. Not only has it had a manual transmission swap, but it's also got an Audi 4.2 V8. The idea of a B8 V8 wasn't entirely lost on Audi. The S5 had one when it launched, though switched to the supercharged 3.0 TFSI when the S5 got its mid-lifecycle refresh. Not so the A4 or Q5. These...

find of the day: Ur S6 quattro Mag Feature Car on BAT

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="98794"] Remember that super clean S6 Avant we featured back in our Q4_2022 issue? We have to say, it’s one of our favorite OEM+ builds of all time, and now its owner Josh has it for sale over on Bring a Trailer. We’re catching this one late in process, meaning it’s got less than 24 hours left on its auction and is tracking at at a remarkably affordable price at this hour. Check it out HERE.

find of the day: Manual Swapped B8 Avant

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="98726"] If the idea of a manual-swapped B8 A4 Avant caught your eye, we fully understand. It caught ours too. Audi never built a B8 manual Avant for the USA, so finding one already done is a treat. Alas though, it needs work, so figure that into your budget... labor too if you don't have the know-how to do it on your own. Long story short, this is a 97,000 mile 2010 A4 Avant. It's owned and maintained by a self identified former Audi Master...

find of the day: First-Gen Q7 TDI offroad

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="98008"] For those wanting something unique, yet without the time, skills of funds to take on your own project, buying it built can be a solid  strategy employed for vehicle acquisition. To that end, we've found a dealership in Sacramento, CA that appears to have a thing for off-road prepped first-generation Q7 TDIs. Why do we say "a thing" for them? Well, they've got at least two similarly equipped Q7 TDIs in inventory with photos uploaded...

find of the day: Low Mile 2006 Audi TT 3.2 Special Edition

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="97782"] Back in 2006, Audi closed out Mk1 TT production with a special edition roadster. For TT enthusiasts, these are sought-after cars, as they paired some of the highest factory spec with the more iconic Mk1 body style. They don’t come up on the market often, particularly low mileage examples such as this one at DRIV3N Auto in Tucson, Arizona. Just 99 examples were built, and all to the same spec. Each was painted Quartz Grey Metallic ...

find of the day: Goodwood Green Audi RS 7 at Audi Norwell

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="97750"] There's tasteful and then there's Goodwood Green (a.k.a. really tasteful). It's hard not to love Audi's take on the iconic British Racing Green theme that's a little darker and a little more gray. This green hue dropped in the early 2000s on cars like the Mk1 TT, RS 4 B5 and RS 6 C5. It remains 20-something years later one of the more popular Audi exclusive colors, so when it pops up on a new RS 7 we sit up and take notice. [gallery lin...

find of the day: Nogaro Blue 2021 Audi RS 6 RS Tribute Edition (1 of 25)

[gallery columns="1" link="file" size="full" ids="97580"] As most RS 6 enthusiasts can tell you, Audi of America built just 25 RS Tribute edition RS 6 Avants back in 2021, then promptly locked out its iconic Nogaro Blue paint from future RS 6 production. That lockout stood until MY 2024 when the color was reopened, though the rareness of Audi exclusive production slots has kept many further cars from being produced at this time. It’s rare that these cars come on the market, but we w...

find of the day: Actual Nogaro Blue S4 in Colorado

[gallery columns="1" link="file" size="full" ids="97419"] Yesterday we ran a find of the day that was a used and likely modified S4 that was also an unconfirmed Nogaro Blue. Listed as Navarra Blue, it looked more like Nogaro though could have been something similar. Thanks to the post on our highly informative Facebook Group, we've learned not only the actual color of that car, but also that there just happens to be a new 2023 S4 Prestige in Audi exclusive Nogaro Blue at Audi Colorado Springs...

find of the day: Possible Nogaro Blue B9 S4 at AutoNation in Texas

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="97328"] Our usual monitoring of the Audi marketplace has turned up an interesting B9 S4 in Amarillo, Texas. The car looks like it may be an Audi exclusive Nogaro Blue build, possibly with a few modifications, but details by the dealer aren't entirely conclusive. Here's what we know. The 2020 S4 Prestige is listed as "Navarra Blue", though clearly it's not that. Navarra is a dark navy blue metallic, while this is much more of a primary blue....

find of the day: Nogaro Blue B8 A4 Avant Back on Bring a Trailer

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="97251"] This particular Nogaro Blue A4 Avant has a bit of a following. Built to a perfect spec in 2012, it's bounced around amongst several owner aficionados while picking up some tasteful OEM plus modifications along the way. It's also only logged about 30,000 miles, helping assure it remains in well kept condition. Even better, it's just come available (again) on the Bring a Trailer auction site. The original build was Audi exclusive Noga...

find of the day: Porsche Riviera Blue SQ5 at Niello Audi (Again!)

[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="97183"] Somebody at Niello Audi has a thing for Porsche colors on SQ5s. It was literally just yesterday that we were reporting the availability of an example in Porsche Jade Green. Now, here’s another in their current inventory in Riviera Blue. [gallery columns="1" link="file" size="full" ids="97185"] As Audi exclusive colors go, Riviera Blue is a popular choice for customers choosing to have Audi go off the normal color swatches in order to build...

find of the day: Porsche Jade Green SQ5 at Audi Niello

[gallery columns="1" size="full" link="file" ids="97102"] We're not sure if it's a coordinated effort, but we're seeing more than the usual mix of Audi exclusive SQ5s coming into market as new MY2024 inventory right now. Take for example this specimen that's popped up as inventory at Niello Audi in Sacramento, California. It is painted a very unique Porsche Jade Green. [gallery columns="1" link="file" size="full" ids="97093"] This SQ5 is already high-spec, already a Prestige package car...
