Audi Club Auction Watch: 04.09.2025
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, but on Wednesday for this special edition due to other commitments, 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 edition of Auction Watch is special in more ways than one; there are three special editions. The main attraction: a 2025 RS 6 Avant Performance GT with only 30 miles. Dig deep and fast into your bank accounts if you’re in the market for it as its auction ends late this afternoon. Second, a 1 of 25 R8 V10 plus Coupe with the Exclusive Edition package. And finally, a 1 of 250 2006 S4 25quattro Special Edition. A more affordable RS 6 Avant in Tango Red is back, just below. A classic and now spunkier avant listed this week is a 1999 A4 Avant that’s been supercharged. Also supercharged is a 2008 RS 4 Cabriolet with only 46k miles on the clock. But if you’re looking for a lot of horsepower, there’s an RS 3 with a Stage 2 complete motor build making over 900 HP. The multiple R8s this week include one spyder and three coupes including the Exclusive Edition. There are two TTs (a Mk I and a Mk II) and the RS 4 this week is a less-common cabriolet. I think variety sums up this week’s 22 listings, there is a bit of everything so please check them all out below. As always, thanks for reading.
This week’s relist is:
Pcarmarket – 2021 RS 6 Avant. This Tango Red over black long roof bid to $80k on cars & bids on 3/28/2025 but failed to sell. It has 34k miles and is well-equipped. Auction ends 04.11.2025 2:00 PM EDT.
1999 Audi A4 Avant (84,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.09.2025 4:06 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends late this PM! No Reserve. This Brilliant Black long roof is pictured in front of the USS Hornet aircraft carrier. It has an Onyx interior with leather seats, wood trim, a 6-disc CD changer, and if you look at the left side of the dash, you’ll see a Prosport boost gauge. That’s for the PES supercharger that’s mounted on the 2.8L V6 in the engine bay. A 5-speed manual and quattro complete the drivetrain. Please read the listing for more mods and the Known Flaws and Recent Service History sections as well. The Carfax report has multiple reporting gaps but no accidents or damage.
2018 Audi RS 3 (39,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.09.2025 5:16 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends late this PM! This Ara Blue Crystal sporty sedan is equipped with Technology, Dynamic, and RS Design packages. In 2022 Iroz Motorsport overhauled the 2.5L I5 to a Stage 2 motor build. Please read the listing for the extensive engine modifications resulting in 900+ horsepower and a long list of additional mods that allow that much power to be put to good use. Carfax reports three owners, no accidents or damage, but one open recall: 69BY Passenger Occupant Detection System.
2025 Audi RS 6 Avant Performance GT (30 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.09.2025 5:22 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends late this PM! This is #344 of 660 GT models produced and 1 of 85 examples for the US market. That mileage is not a typo, it’s a new car. Go find your quattro magazine Q4_2024 issue, pages 28-31 and reread Chris May’s impression of this car. The twin-turbo 4.0L V8 in this spec is Audi rated at 621HP/627 lb-ft, it sends that power to an 8-speed Tiptronic and a revised Sport diff. The Carfax is clean, of course.
2016 Audi TTS (59,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.10.2025 1:36 PM EDT
No Reserve. This Mk III TT is painted Sepang Blue and that’s over a black interior with leather/Alcantara seats, a Technology package, and B&O sound. The only mod is tinted windows. The 2.0L turbocharged I4 is Audi rated at 292HP/280 lb-ft and it sends that power to a 6-speed S tronic. Carfax reports three owners and no accidents or damage.
2009 Audi S5 Coupe (118,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.10.2025 2:35 PM EDT
No Reserve. This early S5 is listed as silver but I think it’s really Quartz Gray not Ice Silver. The interior is listed as gray but the OEM combo is black leather/silver Alcantara. There’s also wood trim, Audi Side Assist blind spot monitoring, and Audi MMI infotainment. The 4.2L V8, factory rated at 354HP/325 lb-ft, had its intake manifold replaced in December 2022, and work in April 2024 included replacing the water pump, oil cooler gasket, radiator, radiator fan, and radiator hoses. A 6-speed manual spins the quattro drive. Carfax reports this is a one-owner car with no accidents or damage but it does have a 7-year gap between new until 2015.
2018 Audi R8 V10 plus Spyder (17,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.10.2025 3:31 PM EDT
Not white but Suzuka Gray metallic paint, Carbon Sigma side blades, Black Optics, and a black soft top grace the exterior of this halo car. The interior has a leather Sport seat package with red stitching, Audi Virtual Cockpit, carbon fiber trim, Audi MMI navigation, and B&O sound. It’s also equipped with dynamic steering and carbon-ceramic brakes. The 5.2L V10 is rated at 610HP/413 lb-ft in plus spec and it pairs with a 7-speed S tronic. Carfax reports three owners and no accidents or damage.
2019 Audi RS 5 Sportback (65,000 Miles)
Pcarmarket – 04.11.2025 2:00 PM EDT
This great color, Daytona Gray pearl, is made even better with a Black Optic package. The interior has Black Fine Nappa leather massaging seats with Crescendo Red honeycomb stitching, carbon fiber trim, and B&O 3D sound. The twin-turbo 2.9L V6 is Audi rated at 444HP/443 lb-ft and bolts to an 8-speed Tiptronic. The seller notes a recently completed service recommended the motor mounts be replaced in the future. Carfax reports one owner and an excellent service history.
2009 Audi R8 Coupe (24,000 Miles)
Pcarmarket – 04.11.2025 2:00 PM EDT
Another Daytona Gray pearl car, this one has Apollo Silver side blades over a black interior with leather sport seats, an Alcantara headliner, and B&O sound. The chassis now rides on KW coilovers. The 4.2L V8 exhales into an aftermarket exhaust, is factory rated at 420HP/317 lb-ft, and spins the desirable 6-speed manual. Carfax reports four previous owners and minor damage to the rear from a rear-end collision in April 2024. The rear now has an R8 V10 bumper cover.
2008 Audi RS 4 Cabriolet (46,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.11.2025 3:14 PM EDT
This Phantom Black droptop with black top is still rocking an APR Stage 3+ TVS1740 supercharger mounted on its 4.2L V8 back in February 2014. The 6-speed manual gearbox had a JHM R Series clutch kit and lightweight flywheel installed then too. Please see the listing for more recent mods, service, and replacements. The interior has Silver Nappa leather seats with contrasting piping, carbon fiber trim, a flat bottom steering wheel, Audi Navigation Plus, Bluetooth phone connectivity, and Bose sound. Carfax reports no accidents or damage but an open recall #69R6 Driver Frontal Airbag Inflator.
2011 Audi A5 Cabriolet (50,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.12.2025 1:47 PM EDT
No Reserve. This shade of gray is Meteor Gray pearl. The soft top is black and it covers a contrasting beige interior with leather seats, wood trim, and Audi MMI infotainment. The turbocharged 2.0L I4 was factory rated at 211HP/258 lb-ft when new and it pairs with an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports only one owner and minor damage to the left front, front, and right front in December 2020.
2001 Audi TT Roadster 225 (44,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.12.2025 4:29 PM EDT
The original owner has decided to part with this Lake Silver metallic Mark I. The black interior is covered by a power black soft top, has Amber Red leather seats with Baseball Optic stitching, some dead pixels in the center display and a difficult to use side-view mirror control switch but a new drive belt for the wind defector, and an Audi Concert cassette stereo with CD changer and Bose sound. The 1.8L I4 (225HP/207 lb-ft) had its thermostat replaced in 2023 and water pump changed with timing belt at 40,000 miles. It’s paired with a 6-speed manual and a Haldex that’s due for service. The Carfax report is clean but the tires are almost 10 years old.
2016 Audi S8 Plus (78,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.14.2025 1:43 PM EDT
It’s a bit hard to appreciate the matte in this Florett Silver matte paint on this full-size sedan from the pictures. The car is equipped with Black Optics, Dynamic, Full Leather, and Driver Assistance packages. The black interior has Valcona leather front Comfort Sport seats that are heated, ventilated, and massaging, carbon fiber and aluminum trim, Alcantara headliner, and Bose sound. The twin-turbo 4.0L V8 in Plus-spec is Audi rated at 605HP/553 lb-ft, has no exhaust resonators, and bolts to an 8-speed Tiptronic with a sport rear differential. Carfax reports minor damage to the rear in January 2019.
2011 Audi A6 (162,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.14.2025 2:12 PM EDT
No Reserve. The exterior of this Brilliant Black full-size sedan reflects the years and mileage. But the interior has held up ok, it’s black with Prestige trim-level goodies, has leather seats, a Cold Weather Package, and Audi MMI Navigation Plus. The car is also equipped with a 19” Sport package. The supercharged 3.0L V6 was rated at 300HP/310 lb-ft when new and pairs with a 6-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2010 Audi R8 V10 Coupe (12,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.14.2025 3:58 PM EDT
This Type 42 last sold in September 2022, just past the market peak, on BaT for $89,888 when it had an APR ECU tune running on its 5.2L V10 and an Akrapovič exhaust. Since then the R tronic was converted to a 6-speed manual by Third Pedal, LLC, and the paint was ceramic coated. The exterior is Ice Silver metallic with a Carbon Fiber Sigma Exterior package, an aftermarket front grille, an aftermarket carbon fiber rear spoiler, and the wheels are powder coated in gunmetal gray. The black interior has Convenience and Enhanced Leather packages. The Carfax is clean but the seller notes the malfunction indicator light for the tire pressure monitoring system is on and a replacement set of TPMS sensors accompany the sale.
