Audi Club Auction Watch: 02.13.2025
Words: Steve Johnson
Hello again Audi aficionados! Thank you for clicking on another edition of Auction Watch where we’ve done the internet searching for you. We’ve checked multiple car auction sites looking for Audi models worthy of your bids. Typically each Thursday we post those listings calling out a car’s highlights and include a few pictures and a link to the listing. Our goal is to help you find the Audi that you’re looking for in time for you to bid on it.
This week’s auction listings pick right back up on last week’s model number “8” theme with an R8 V10 spyder and coupe, both from 2012 with auctions that end today so check them out fast. These two are followed by a 2018 R8 V10 Spyder, a classic A8 from 2000, a 2012 A8 L W12, and even a 2019 Q8. It’s also interesting to note that there are 11 no reserve listings among the total 19 listings. My pick of the week is a 2016 TT Roadster with only 2,907 miles on the clock. As always, thanks for reading!
This week’s relist is:
Pcarmarket – 2012 R8 V10 Spyder. This Phantom Black drophead coupe most recently bid to $61,750 on cars & bids in late January 2024 and apparently hasn’t sold since. The same dealer is relisting it, this time on Pcarmarket. If interested, bid quickly as the auction ends early this afternoon.
2012 Audi R8 V10 Coupe (24,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 02.13.2025 5:25 PM EST
Bid quickly, auction ends late this PM! It’s another low mileage 2012 R8, this example is painted Phantom Black pearl, has carbon sigma side blades, and an aftermarket carbon-fiber rear spoiler although the listing mentions the speed activated rear spoiler twice. The black interior has leather seats with Crimson Red stitching which extends to the dashboard and door panels, an infotainment system with Audi navigation, a rearview camera, and B&O sound. The 5.2L V10, Audi factory rated at 525HP/391 lb-ft, sits in a bed of carbon fiber and connects to a 6-speed R tronic. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2012 Audi TT Coupe (17,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 02.14.2025 1:35 PM EST
Your Valentine might like this low mileage Mark II TT whose Ice Silver metallic exterior looks nice but be sure to look at pictures 92, 93, and 103-105 for the corrosion from winters in NY and PA. The black interior has beige leather seats and door panels, Audi Navigation Plus, and Bose sound. When written, the 2.0L engine was listed as an inline 5 which should read I4. It mates to a 6-speed S tronic. The Carfax is clean but doesn’t specify if/when tires were last replaced, the date codes appear to end in 19 though.
2014 Audi SQ5 (97,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 02.14.2025 2:24 PM EST
No Reserve. This Estoril Blue fast SUV was made even faster with EPL Stage 2 ECU and TCU tunes and an aftermarket supercharger pulley. Inside the black cabin are Chestnut Brown heated/ventilated leather Comfort front seats, Audi Parking System Plus, a sagging headliner, and B&O sound. In a filthy engine bay sits a supercharged 3.0L V6 which connects to an 8-speed Tiptronic, but at least the Carfax is clean.
2000 Audi A8 (96,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 02.15.2025 3:52 PM EST

The drivetrain is a 4.2L V8 (310HP/302 lb-ft when new), a 5-speed Tiptronic with Torsen center diff and quattro drive. Carfax reports this was a one-owner car, no accidents or damage but little service history.
2018 Audi R8 V10 Spyder (28,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 02.15.2025 4:39 PM EST

2013 Audi S6 (49,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 02.17.2025 5:23 PM EST
No Reserve. I’d call this Estoril Blue Crystal Effect sedan a sleeper. Only the 21″ Klässen ID F53R wheels hint at what lies under the hood. That would be a turbo 4.0L V8 modified with a New German Performance Stage 3 turbocharger upgrade kit, an AWE Tuning cold air intake and turbocharger inlet pipes, APR Alpha turbocharger manifolds and engine software, an AMS Performance intercooler, APR cat-less test pipes, and an Akrapovič titanium exhaust. Please read the listing for the full mod list and other details. The Carfax report is clean but you might want to get the Escort radar detector fixed, you’re going to need it.
2016 Audi TT Roadster (3,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 02.18.2025 1:31 PM EST
No Reserve. The first year for the Mark III TT. This Mythos Black metallic example seems to absorb the light in the pictures. But the contrasting Palomino Brown Fine Nappa leather seats show up just fine. Also in the driver-focused cabin are an electric wind deflector, a neck-level heating system, Audi MMI Touch infotainment, and B&O sound. The turbocharged 2.0L I4 (220HP/258 lb-ft) sends its power to all four wheels through a 6-speed S tronic. Of course, the Carfax is clean.
2016 Audi S4 (62,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 02.18.2025 2:54 PM EST
This Glacier White metallic sedan has some nice mods: an Integrated Engineering Stage 2 single pulley ECU tune, an Integrated Engineering Audi 3.0T cold air intake, an ECS Tuning valved catback exhaust, 19” TSW Nürburgring matte gunmetal wheels, Bilstein B8 front struts and rear shocks, H&R Sport lowering springs, an RS 4 style front grille, an ECS Tuning carbon fiber rear diffuser, and tinted windows.

This may be the first Q8 we’ve had on Auction Watch. It’s Night Black outside and black inside with Okapi Brown leather seats and arm rests and Prestige trim-level equipment. The only mods are black badges and tinted windows. You can barely see the turbocharged 3.0L V6 (335HP/369 lb-ft) due to the dirt and engine covers.
