Audi Club Auction Watch: 05.29.2025
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.
The most unique car listed online for auction sale this week is the 2018 Audi R8 V10 Star of Lucis inspired by the Final Fantasy XV universe. Unless you’ve seen the computer graphic-generated film Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV, you probably just said, “What?”. I’m with you there. This customized coupe is listed on SBX Cars but it appropriately lives in Japan as it’s right-hand drive. It won’t be eligible for import to the States for another 18 years so let’s look at some more immediately available options.
The elder statesman this week is a modified 1995.5 S6 equipped with a replacement drivetrain that is a must-read. You need to scroll down a ways to get to it, but please check out the three auctions (two long roof and an R8 V10 Coupe 6-speed) that end this afternoon first. As far as the rest of the listings go, this week’s theme is variety. There isn’t quite one of every model, but there is everything from practical daily drivers to full-on sports cars. In the 20 listings there’s an A4, various Allroads and Avants, and a Q7 for practicality. At the spectrum’s other end there are two models of R8s, an RS 7, and RS 6, and an RS 4. So please check out the listings that may meet your needs and thanks for reading!

Bring a Trailer – 05.29.2025 2:34 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends mid-PM today! The current owner bought this Brillant Black long roof off BaT in August 2022 for $27,500. The black interior has Silk Nappa leather/Alcantara seats, aluminum trim, a broken tab on the right-rear sunshade, and a Pioneer touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay connectivity linked to a Bose sound. The chassis has 2Bennett Automotive coilovers and adjustable control arms and rolls on 19” BBS wheels. Thule crossbars and a Rocky Mounts bike mount come with the sale. Please read the listing for the service done to the 4.2L 40V V8 (340HP/302 lb-ft) by the current owner. A 6-speed manual, Torsen center diff, and quattro complete the drivetrain.

2002 Audi Allroad (125,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 05.29.2025 3:25 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends mid-PM today! No Reserve. A bit of déjà vu here, this long roof is also a BaT alumni. Its current owner bought it in November 2021 for $20k, please read the listing for the good service and other work since then. It’s triple green: Highland Green metallic over Fern Green and Desert Grass leather, and those leather seats are in nice shape. Also inside are a Bose sound system wired to an RNS-E navigation head unit with a 6.5″ display. The twin-turbo 2.7L V6 was factory rated at 250HP/258 lb-ft when new and spins a 6-speed manual. A fitted Luno air mattress and other items that accompany the vehicle are shown in photos 155-160. The Carfax report is clean.
2011 Audi R8 V10 Coupe (19,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 05.29.2025 4:10 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends late-PM today! And another alumni, this coupe’s seller bought it off c&b in December 2023 for $107k. I think it has low milage because it has spent much of its life for sale, per the clean Carfax report the next owner will be #10. It’s Daytona Gray outside with Oxygen Silver side blades over a black interior that has Nappa leather seats, a Convenience Package, and B&O sound. It rolls on 20” BC Forged wheels but will be due tires soon, it’s wearing 2015 and 2017 date-coded tires. The 5.2L V10, Audi rated at 525HP/391 lb-ft, exhales into a Larini exhaust and spins the desirable 6-speed manual.
2017 Audi S6 (40,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 05.30.2025 1:27 PM EDT
I think this stately Daytona Gray pearl, Prestige trim-level, full-size sedan qualifies as a sleeper. Why, you ask? The twin-turbo 4.0L V8 runs an Audi Club sponsor APR ECU tune, but the listing doesn’t say what stage level. A 7-speed S tronic, sport diff, and quattro complete the drivetrain. Factory options include the S6 Sport, Driver Assistance, Comfort Seating, and Black optic packages. The interior has Flint Gray massaging/heated/ventilated Valcona leather seats, Achat Gray Fine Grain Birch wood trim, and B&O sound. Carfax reports three previous owners and no accidents or damage.
2020 Audi S7 (59,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 05.30.2025 3:10 PM EDT
Going up one model series, this S7 Prestige trim-level sportback is painted Glacier White metallic and has a Black Optic package. This generation’s drivetrain switched to the twin-turbo 2.9L V6, Audi rated at 444HP/443 lb-ft, and an 8-speed Tiptronic. The otherwise black interior has Arras Red Valcona leather seats, arm rests and center console, Gray Brown Fine Grain Ash Natural Wood inlays, an Alcantara headliner, plus B&O Advanced 3D sound. The car’s also equipped with an S Sport package. Carfax reports minor damage to the front in November 2023. The car sold as a CPO vehicle after the damage.
2002 Audi TT Roadster 225 (27,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 05.31.2025 1:32 PM EDT
No Reserve. This Avus Silver pearl fun machine has a black soft top that was replaced in January 2025. It’s over an interior featuring Amber Red leather with Baseball Optic stitched seats and trim. The turbocharged 1.8L I4 was factory rated at 225HP/207 lb-ft when new, spins a 6-speed manual, and per the seller’s comments the timing belt was done once and is “100% good to go”. Carfax reports only two owners and no accidents or damage.
2013 Audi A4 (99,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 05.31.2025 1:54 PM EDT
No Reserve. Need a new daily? This Glacier White metallic sedan might be just what you want. Carfax reports minor damage to the right front in September 2018, minor damage to the front in May 2023, and the seller notes rear bumper and the right fender are scratched. So you won’t need to worry about a few more parking lot dings. The black interior has leather seats, stainless steel mesh trim, cruise control, and an Audi Concert CD stereo. The turbocharged 2.0L I4 (211HP/258 lb-ft) pairs with an 8-speed Tiptronic and had its water pump and thermostat replaced in December 2021.
2003 Audi RS 6 (103,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 05.31.2025 2:46 PM EDT
This fast sedan sold with no reserve on BaT in February 2023 for $20,500. The colors are Daytona Gray pearl over Ebony. The mods include D2 Racing coilovers and a 6-speed manual installed in December 2018 in which the clutch was replaced and flywheel was resurfaced in February 2021. The black interior has leather seats with silver piping, wood trim, microfiber headliner, and an Audi Symphony AM/FM/CD/cassette stereo with an aftermarket Bluetooth module and Bose sound. The twin-turbo 4.2L V8 had its timing belt, valve cover seal kit, and secondary water pump replaced under previous ownership. The current owner installed an aftermarket ECU tune and changed the serpentine belt, valve cover gaskets, ignition coils, and spark plugs. See photo #136 for the dyno chart. There are no catalytic converters and the Carfax report is clean.
2008 Audi RS 4 (43,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 05.31.2025 3:46 PM EDT
No Reserve. What makes this fast sedan stand out from the others is its Audi Exclusive interior. The black and Crimson Red Nappa leather Recaro front seats with red piping and RS4 logos looked great against the Avus Silver pearl exterior. Also inside are carbon fiber trim, Audi Navigation Plus, Bluetooth phone connectivity, satellite radio, a glovebox-mounted 6-CD changer, and Bose sound. The chassis is equipped with Dynamic Ride Control. The 4.2L V8, Audi rated at 420HP/317 lb-ft, had carbon cleaning done in June 2020 and the ignition coils were replaced in November 2022. A 6-speed manual and quattro complete the drivetrain. Carfax reports minor damage to the right side in August 2013. The RS 4 badges in photos #46, #50 and #51 have been previously removed and reapplied in a poor alignment.
2005 Audi Allroad 4.2 (66,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.01.2025 1:20 PM EDT
No Reserve. This Brilliant Black with dark gray cladding long roof looks ok but it’s a bit of a mechanic’s special as there are a number of flaws that all add up to repair costs to correct. The black interior with black/gray leather seats have a tear in the left rear seat back, the driver’s lumbar support doesn’t work, and one of the cupholders is broken. The 4.2L V8, factory rated at 300HP/295 lb-ft, connects to a 5-speed automatic, but see the listings comments about fixing its leaks. There is a dent on top of the left rear quarter panel, various scrapes/scratches on the bumpers, and a water leak in the rear tailgate. The tire pressure monitoring system doesn’t work either, but at least Carfax reports it’s a one-owner car with no accidents.
2003 Audi TT Roadster 225 (27,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 06.02.2025 2:30 PM EDT
This drophead coupe is painted Brilliant Red and has a power black soft top. The Ebony interior has leather seats, an Audi Concert stereo, and a wind deflector photo’d both up and down. Mods reported by the seller are a front lip spoiler and chrome finish on the wheels. The turbocharged 1.8L I4 was Aud rated at 225HP/207 lb-ft when new and spins a 6-speed manual. Carfax reports five previous owners and no accidents/damage but the tires have 2015 date codes.
1995.5 Audi S6 (206,000 Miles shown)
Bring a Trailer – 06.03.2025 1:36 PM EDT
No Reserve. If the S6 above is a sleeper then this one is wide awake. You really need to read the listing for the mods done to the replacement 20-valve 2.2L AAN I5 and its partner, an 01E 6-speed manual transaxle. The results are shown in photo #261’s dyno chart. In fact, you need to read the entire listing, the comments, and look at all the photos to appreciate the level of customization on this Brilliant Black over Anthracite leather beauty. The Carfax report is clean too.
2006 Audi A6 Avant 3.2 (151,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.03.2025 2:00 PM EDT
No Reserve. This long roof is finished in Atlas Gray metallic over a beige/gray interior with beige leather seats, wood trim, and a CD stereo with remote 6-disc CD changer and Bose sound. Please read the listing for a few flaws inside and out. The 3.2L V6, factory rated at 255HP/243 lb-ft, had its engine control module, fuel pump, fuel injectors, and engine mounts replaced in November 2020, and the intake manifold actuator was repaired in April 2025. It pairs with a 6-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports only two owners and no accidents or damage.
2015 Audi A8 L TDI (99,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.03.2025 2:04 PM EDT
No Reserve. This Audi flagship is listed as white. It has a black roof and I’ll guess a Black Optic package. The roomy black interior has heated/ventilated/massaging front seats and heated rear seats, wood trim, Audi MMI infotainment with navigation, surround view camera, and Bose sound. The 3.0L turbodiesel V6 (240HP/406 lb-ft) bolts to an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports four owners and no accidents or damage.
2021 Audi RS 7 (28,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.03.2025 2:40 PM EDT
This top of the line Navarra Blue metallic sportback is powered by a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 Audi rated at 591HP/590 lb-ft plus a 48-volt mild hybrid system. It exhales into an optional Sport exhaust and bolts to an 8-speed Tiptronic. The otherwise black interior has Cognac Valcona leather heated and ventilated front seats, door panels, and center console trim, Carbon twill inlays, an Alcantara headliner, heated rear seats, power soft closing doors, and B&O 3D Advanced sound. The chassis is equipped with rear axle steering and an RS-tuned adaptive air suspension. Carfax reports three owners and no accidents or damage.
2011 Audi R8 V10 Spyder (26,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 06.03.2025 3:05 PM EDT
It’s another low-mileage Spyder from MY2011 but this one has an attractive combo of Phantom Black pearl with a contrasting red soft top and carbon fiber mirror caps. The black interior has Nappa leather seats, Carbon Sigma inlays, a Convenience Package, and an aftermarket touchscreen head unit with B&O sound. The only other mod is a brake fluid reservoir access hole cut into the frunk’s plastic trim. The 5.2L V10, Audi rated at 525HP/391 lb-ft, spins the desirable 6-speed manual. The Carfax is clean but the ownership length is a bit off and the tires have 2016 and 2017 date codes.
2018 Audi Q7 (93,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 06.03.2025 3:10 PM EDT
There are two shades of beige on this full-size SUV: Cobra Beige metallic outside and Pistachio Beige inside. That roomy inside feature Prestige trim-level goodies, heated and ventilated front leather seats, a Driver Assistance package, a panoramic sunroof, a WeatherTech cargo mat, and power-folding third-row seats. The chassis rolls on 20” BBS wheels. The supercharged 3.0L V6 (333HP/325 lb-ft) pairs with an 8-speed Tiptronic, may have a coolant leak, and needs a new battery (see photos 96-98). Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2011 Audi R8 V10 Coupe (18,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.03.2025 5:45 PM EDT
It’s yet another low-mileage R8 from MY2011 but this one’s a coupe and also finished in Phantom Black pearl, the side blades are carbon fiber Sigma. The black interior has an Enhanced Leather Package, an Alcantara headliner, an infotainment system with Audi navigation including back-up camera, and B&O sound. A three-piece luggage set comes with the car. The drivetrain is the same as the Spyder’s above. The number of owners on the clean Carfax report is explained in the listing’s comments. It’s a shame the photo quality is so poor in this listing.
2013 Audi S5 Cabriolet (47,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.04.2025 1:34 PM EDT
No Reserve. This Monsoon Gray metallic drophead coupe has a black soft top that covers a black interior, an RS-style grille that’s not mentioned as a mod in the listing as well and both V6T and Supercharged badges which wasn’t the way it was delivered. Inside you’ll find leather S Sport front seats, Carbon Atlas trim, Audi MMI infotainment with Navigation Plus, and B&O sound. The supercharged 3.0L V6 now wears a CTS Turbo air intake and pairs well with a 7-speed S tronic. Carfax reports four owners, no accident or damage, but no service by owner #4 so I’m guessing that’s when the mods occurred. If interested in bidding, ask for a video or photos of the dash with engine running to see if the redline is higher than 6,500 RPM to see if it also was tuned.
2016 Audi S7 (74,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 06.04.2025 3:00 PM EDT
This Glacier White metallic, Prestige trim-level sportback has a Black Optic package plus black vinyl wrap on the roof and mirror caps. Paint protection film is applied to the front bumper, headlights, hood, and A-pillars and the windows are tinted. The black interior has Valcona leather seats, layered aluminum/black wood inlays, a Cold Weather package, the MMI updated to include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and adaptive cruise control. The car is also equipped with an Sport package. The 4.0L twin-turbo V8, Audi rated at 450HP/406 lb-ft, bolts to a 7-speed S tronic. Carfax reports minor damage to the left side and left rear. The seller notes that a vehicle backed into this Audi while it was parked.
