cars & bids – 04.06.2023 3:54 PM EDT

Bring a Trailer – 04.06.2023 5:18 PM EDT

A 4.2L V8 (350HP/325 lb-ft) connects to a 6-speed Tiptronic powers this Calla White finished Gen 1 Prestige model. Inside the light gray/black cavernous cabin are Limestone Gray leather seats and wood trim accents the door panels, center console, and shift knob that really pop.

2021 Audi RS 5 Sportback (20,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.07.2023 2:40 PM EDT
The twin-turbo 2.9L V6 (444HP/443 lb-ft) that spins an 8-speed Tiptronic seems a fitting match to the Stormtrooper color scheme: Glacier White metallic with Black Optic Carbon Package over a black interior with Lunar Silver seats and carbon fiber trim. This is a very well-optioned car that has an Audi Care maintenance plan. It also has a RoadVantage tire and wheel warranty and an Xzilon Green warranty that are transferable for a fee.

2001 Audi S4 Avant (183,000 Miles)

2003 Audi RS 6 (97,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.08.2023 4:30 PM EDT
No Reserve. One owner, see the listing’s comments that explain the three owners in the Carfax report. Painted Ebony pearl over a black cabin with Ebony leather seating, carbon fiber trim and a Kenwood touchscreen stereo linked to a Bose audio system, adjustable Bilstein PSS9 coilovers handle the suspension duties now. The twin-turbochargers on the 4.2L V8 were replaced in 2014 and a remanufactured 5-speed Tiptronic was installed in 2016. The V8 runs aftermarket engine-management software. Please read the listing for a lot of additional service work and the moderate damage reported by Carfax.
2014 Audi R8 V10 Coupe (23,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.09.2023 1:15 PM EDT
This low-mileage R8 has the same powertrain and is the same color as the one above but is a “fixed-head coupe” to use a British term. It wears an aftermarket rear wing and has carbon fiber Sigma sideblades outside, in the engine bay the air-conditioning compressor was replaced in October 2021. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2005 Audi S4 Avant (111,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.10.2023 1:15 PM EDT
That would be a Brilliant Black long roof with a black and silver interior featuring an Enhanced Interior Package (Alcantara seat inserts, brushed aluminum trim) and an Audio Package. The 4.2L V8, factory rated at 340HP/302 lb-ft connects to a 6-speed manual. The only mod reported tinted windows and LED DRL bulbs which the seller believes is causing the headlight bulb fault and windshield washer lights to be illuminated. A clean Carfax but it is showing its age.
2018 Audi S5 Cabriolet (82,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.10.2023 3:22 PM EDT
Bid on this Prestige trim level B9 generation drop-head coupe to be ready for summer. Under its bonnet is a turbocharged 3.0L V6 that Audi rates at 354HP/369 lb-ft. That power flows to an 8-speed Tiptronic. The finish is Navarra Blue metallic with a black soft top over a black interior with Rotor Gray seats, Driver Assistance package, and Carbon Atlas inlays. It has a clean Carfax report.
2006 Audi TT Roadster 225 (43,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.10.2023 3:41 PM EDT
No Reserve. Another Imola Yellow beauty, this one has contrasting black soft top and black interior with Ebony Nappa leather seats, Audi Concert CD stereo, and a Bose sound system. The turbocharged 1.8L I4 (225HP/207 lb-ft) spins a 6-speed manual. The brake pads were reportedly replaced and the rotors were resurfaced in November 2022. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2005 Audi TT Coupe 225 (161,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.10.2023 3:43 PM EDT
No Reserve. A fixed-head coupe, this one in Brilliant Black over an interior the listing says is Aviator Gray but it sure looks black in the pictures. It has the same drivetrain as the roadster above and a sticker in the engine bay says the timing belt was last replaced in September 2019 at 156,582 miles. Carfax reports minor damage occurred to the front end in October 2018. The seller states that another vehicle hit the car in a parking lot resulting in a cracked front bumper and a damaged driver’s side headlight.
2002 Audi S6 Avant (194,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.10.2023 5:50 PM EDT
No Reserve. A 01E 6-speed manual retrofit with RS 4-spec clutch components highlights this Avant, but wait, there’s more. The 4.2L V8 was cleaned/resealed, cylinder heads overhauled, and Solo Motorsports engine management software and MagnaFlow catalytic converters were added. It rolls on 18″ Rotiform KPS wheels held in place by BC Racing adjustable coilovers with Swift springs. The exterior was refinished in OEM Light Silver Metallic and that’s over a black cabin with leather/Alcantara seats. Please read the listing for more additional details. A clean Carfax too.
2013 Audi S5 Coupe (95,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.11.2023 3:36 PM EDT
The drivetrain on this Glacier White metallic over a black interior with leather seats and B&O sound is all OEM: supercharged 3.0L V6, 7-speed S tronic and sport diff. The mods are limited to H&R lowering springs, an RS 5-style front grille, black exterior badges/rings, and ceramic window tint. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2005 Audi Allroad (103,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.11.2023 4:47 PM EDT
Déjà vu—this car’s listing reads much the same as the S6 Avant above but starting with a twin-turbo 2.7L V6 this time. Another manual swap, RS 4 clutch bits, modified engine management software, exhaust work, and chassis enhancements. Please check out the listing for all the details. Light Silver metallic again and the seller notes that the gray bumpers, wheel arch extensions, and rocker panels were refinished for the sale. The seats are again two-tone but all leather and there’s a clean Carfax report as well.
2012 Audi S4 (61,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.12.2023 3:22 PM EDT
No Reserve. I missed this car when it listed two weeks ago on cars & bids, but the winning bidder didn’t follow through with the buy giving you the chance to bid again. This Brilliant Black over a black interior with Spectral Silver Alcantara/black leather seats and aluminum-trimmed sedan has a few more ponies than the factory put in it. The supercharged 3.0L V6 now runs a STaSIS Engineering Stage 1 CPU tune and exhales into a STaSIS Engineering Stage 2 exhaust. Delivered in Prestige trim level, it also has a Titanium Package and sport diff to help the 7-speed S tronic put the power down. It has a clean Carfax too.
