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. 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 elder statesman is a 1983 Ur quattro in black, its Owner’s Manual above looks like it came more from 1883. We also have a 1991 200 20V Turbo which is apparently a bit of a rare beast. The low-mileage king this week is a 2009 R8 Coupe with less than 4,000 miles on the clock but in a close second place is a 2010 R8 V10 Coupe with just over that mark. There’s also an R8 GT with only 12,000 miles. Of course there are two RS 4s and four TT models with 4-, 5- and 6-cylinder engines to check out. Please keeping scrolling to check out these and all 21 listings this week. Thanks for reading!

Bring a Trailer – 06.06.2024 2:42 PM EDT

This Audi flagship is finished in Cherry Black pearl over a black interior featuring heated Valcona leather seats all-around, Amber Sycamore wood trim, an Alcantara package, solar-powered sunroof, navigation, Audi MMI infotainment, and B&O sound. It’s powered by a 5.2L V10, factory rated at 450HP/398 lb-ft that had its spark plugs and manifold gaskets replaced in 2023 and it spins a 6-speed Tiptronic. The Carfax report is clean.
2009 Audi R8 Coupe (3,500 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.06.2024 3:20 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends mid PM today! This week’s Sepang Blue pearl R8 (with Carbon Sigma side blades) lacks the STaSIS supercharger from last week’s example but it does have less than 4,000 miles on it. This one’s 4.2L V8 is Audi rated at 420HP/317 lb-ft and it spins the desirable 6-speed gated manual. The black cabin has leather seats, B&O sound, and an infotainment system with Audi Navigation Plus. Pirelli P Zero tires were mounted in 2023 and important fluids were changed too. Of course, the Carfax report is clean.
2018 Audi A4 (7,600 Miles)
cars & bids – 06.06.2024 3:30 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends mid PM today! No Reserve. This sedan is a 1 of 40 equipped with the Ultra Sport Package that puts a 6-speed manual actuator in your right hand. Granted, it’s only connected to 252HP/273 lb-ft emanating from a turbocharged 2.0L I4, but a call to one of Audi Club North America’s engine tuner sponsors could up those numbers. It’s Quantum Gray on the outside, black on the inside with Premium Plus package equipment and the Ultra Sport package adds even more goodies. The Carfax report is clean.

cars & bids – 06.06.2024 4:30 PM EDT

The engine is a 2.9L twin-turbo V6 Audi rated at 444HP/443 lb-ft, and the transmission is an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports no accidents or damage but you might ask why the radiator was replaced, twice.

Bring a Trailer – 06.06.2024 4:30 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends late PM today! No Reserve. The listing states this model was only offered in the States for the 1991MY.

Please see the seller’s first comment detailing all the engine work, and the center display status. The great color is Denim Blue pearl which is over a black cabin featuring Ebony leather seats and a CD system with Bose sound.

2003 Audi Allroad (136,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.07.2024 4:03 PM EDT
No Reserve. We first saw this Highland Green metallic long roof on BaT in March 2022 when it sold at no Reserve for $14,000. Since then, it had an Arnott coil spring conversion kit installed and the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, and coolant temperature switch, spark plugs, front axle shafts, and tires were replaced. Inside, the black and gray leather seats are heated front and rear and a Bose sound system connected to a factory AM/FM/CD/cassette head unit. The twin-turbo 2.7L V6 (250HP/258 lb-ft) pairs with a 6-speed manual. The Carfax report is still clean.
2007 Audi RS 4 (50,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.09.2024 1:22 PM EDT
This Mugello Blue pearl fast sedan previously sold on BaT in August 2021 for $45,250. That exterior color shows up better in the older listing. The interior has Silver Nappa leather Recaro front seats, heated rear seats, carbon fiber trim, navigation, and a CD stereo with Bose sound. It still has functional Dynamic Ride Control. Drivetrain is an N/A 4.2L V8 linked with a 6-speed manual. The Carfax report is clean but the tires have 2018 date codes.
2013 Audi A8 L (82,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.09.2024 2:02 PM EDT
No Reserve. This is an example of Audi’s fullest size sedan in Night Blue pearl. Optional equipment in the black, wood-trimmed interior includes Comfort, Rear Seat Comfort, Cold Weather, and Camera Assistant packages, LED headlights, Panorama sunroof, and a black cloth headliner. The twin-turbo 4.0L V8 produced 420HP/444 lb-ft when new and pairs with an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports minor damage to the right front and left side in March 2022 which the seller states is a result of being sideswiped in 2019. The driver’s door was repaired and a headlight was replaced as a result.
2010 Audi R8 V10 Coupe (4,100 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.10.2024 1:57 PM EDT
Yet another low-mileage R8, this time an Ice Silver metallic example with Carbon Sigma side blades over a black cabin with Enhanced Leather Package, illuminated door sill guards, an Alcantara headliner, Audi Navigation Plus, B&O sound, carbon fiber sigma inlays, and a very cool carbon-fiber shift ball. The 5.2L V10 is Audi rated at 525HP/391 lb-ft and it spins a 6-speed gated manual. Of course, the Carfax is clean but a wheel was refinished in March 2024 and scuffs are visible on the left-front wheel.

Bring a Trailer – 06.10.2024 2:53 PM EDT

Bring a Trailer – 06.10.2024 3:49 PM EDT
Another 6-speed manual equipped R8, this time in a drophead coupe. And this coupe is also modified with a VF Engineering tune and Tubi Style exhaust for its 5.2L V10. The color is Phantom Black pearl and it has a mesh front grille and black soft top over its back interior that has carbon-fiber Sigma trim, B&O sound, and an infotainment system with Audi Navigation Plus.

2003 Audi TT Roadster 225 (56,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.10.2024 4:25 PM EDT
No Reserve. This drophead coupe is painted Moro Blue pearl, it has a replacement blue soft top, and the great Amber Red leather seats with Baseball Optic stitching. It’s optioned with the Premium and Audio packages, dead pixels are evident on the digital display, and the CD changer and right-side glove box button do not work. The turbocharged 1.8L I4, Audi rated at 225HP/207 lb-ft, mates to a 6-speed manual. The Carfax is clean but please read the listing for numerous serviced items.
1983 Audi quattro (81,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.10.2024 5:21 PM EDT
This Ur quattro, 1 of about 664 built for the US market, is said to have been stored for a period before acquired by the seller in 2017. The exterior is repainted in factory black and wears Hella foglight covers and has H1/H4 headlights. The black interior has reupholstered leather seats, A/C, power windows, an Alpine cassette stereo with a trunk-mounted CD changer, and the headliner is sagging. The turbocharged 2.1L I5, rated 160HP/170 lb-ft when new, had its timing belt and water pump replaced under current ownership and spins a 5-speed manual. The Carfax report, for what it’s worth, lists no accidents or damage.
2014 Audi RS 7 (83,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.11.2024 2:47 PM EDT
This Prestige trim-level Misano Red pearl sportback is back to try again on BaT. In mid-March it bid to $30,000 but failed to sell. It still has Audi’s most powerful engine in 2014, the twin-turbo 4.0L V8 delivers 10HP more than the R8 V10 Plus. That power flows to an 8-speed Tiptronic and to the left-front wheel through a new axle replaced in May. The black interior has Valcona leather seats with contrasting honeycomb stitching, carbon fiber trim, B&O sound, and an Audi MMI infotainment with a pop-up display and navigation. The Carfax report is clean and the sunroof still doesn’t open.
2007 Audi RS 4 (80,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 06.11.2024 3:36 PM EDT
The only mod, if you can call it that, on this Phantom Black fast sedan are tinted windows. The Dynamic Ride Control is still functional on this one too. The OEM drivetrain is a 4.2L V8 (420HP/317 lb-ft) and a 6-speed manual. The interior has Silk Nappa leather Recaro front sport seats, carbon fiber trim, and Premium package goodies. The Carfax report is clean but there’s a dent on trunk lid and 2018 date codes on front tires and 2019 codes on the rear.
2012 Audi R8 GT #176 (12,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.11.2024 4:03 PM EDT
Another Ice Silver metallic R8 Coupe but this one’s #176 of the GT model 333-unit production run. The side blades are matte Carbon Sigma and the black cabin has leather/Alcantara seats with Crimson Red stitching. Options are carbon ceramic brakes, matte carbon fiber engine, door, and console trim, B&O sound, and forged aluminum 19” wheels. The 5.2L V10 rates 560HP/398 lb-ft but the Quicksilver Exhausts Titan Sport exhaust may add a few digits to those numbers. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2021 Audi RS 7 (7,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 06.11.2024 5:03 PM EDT
Picture #128 says this Sportback’s color is Grenadier Red metallic and it’s contrasted by a Black Optic package. The black interior has Valcona leather seats with red contrast stitching and Executive and RS Design plus (in red) packages. The drivetrain is the same as an RS 6 Avant, a twin-turbo 4.0L V8 with a 48-volt hybrid system (rated 591HP/590 lb-ft) and an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports no accidents or damage but two open recalls.
