Audi Club Auction Watch: 10.23.2025
Words: Steve Johnson
Hello again Audi aficionados! Thank you for reading another Auction Watch where we’ve done the internet searching for you. We’ve checked multiple online 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 that certain Audi that you’re looking for in time for you to bid on it.
My Navigator and I will be off to run One Lapp of Ohio this weekend so the timing of next week’s Auction Watch may be tweaked a bit, so check for it daily! Now onto this week’s auction listings which begin with three cabriolets: a 2014 S5, a rare 2008 RS 4, and a TT Roadster 180. They’re joined by a 1998 A8, a 2015 Q7, and a 2015 R8 V10 Coupe with auctions that end today (Thursday) so check them out quickly if interested. Now onto another listing that’s urgent for a much different reason, you need to do a lot of homework first. The Ebony Black pearl B5 RS 4 Avant pictured above is located in Australia. Scroll down to the listing link for more on the car and the additional costs you need to calculate before bidding. A second RS 4 Avant is also listed this week, a 2007 model imported from Switzerland. So Eastern Canada Chapter folks check it out because it’s still years from U.S. importation. Now onto listings everyone could enjoy, like a 2003 Allroad or a 2014 S8, both with lower than average mileage for their years. There’s also a hot SUV—a 2020 SQ5. Speaking of hot, how about a nice Catalunya Red RS 3 Stage 2 build? My pick of the week is a 2002 TT Coupe ALMS edition because it looks well maintained, is tastefully modified, and is Misano Red! In all this week there are 20 listings for you to check out. As always, thanks for reading!
This week’s relist is:
This 2014 S5 Cabriolet last sold at auction in late August 2025. It’s triple black (Phantom over leather), Premium Plus trim, has 42k miles, and the supercharged 3.0L V6 bolts to a 7-speed S tronic.

Inside are Nappa leather Recaro front seats, carbon fiber trim, an aftermarket touchscreen head unit with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Bose sound. It still has its Dynamic Ride Control suspension. The 4.2L V8 (420HP/317 lb-ft) had carbon cleaning done and intake flaps replaced in July 2019, and camshafts and camshaft chain tensioner replaced in October 2019. A 6-speed manual and quattro complete the drivetrain. The clean Carfax reports four owners.
1998 Audi A8 4.2 (201,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.23.2025 1:21 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends early this PM! No Reserve. This Pearlescent White Clearcoat full-size sedan has a few exterior flaws but still looks to be in great shape considering the years and mileage. The interior has Ecru Nappa leather seats, Burl wood trim, a power rear sunshade, and an Audi Concert cassette stereo with remote CD changer and Bose sound. The car phone powers up, but (no surprise) doesn’t connect to a network. The 4.2L V8, Audi rated at 300HP/295 lb-ft when new, has had a number of items serviced since 2018. Please read the listing for details and about the possible issue with the 5-speed automatic’s torque converter. A set of 16″ Audi alloy wheels mounted with studded snow tires is included in the sale. Carfax reports only two previous owners and no accidents/damage.

2003 Audi Allroad (59,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.24.2025 1:54 PM EDT
No Reserve. Carfax reports one owner and no accidents or damage but there are notable flaws on the exterior of this Alpaka Beige metallic long roof. The beige/gray interior with leather seats, wood trim, and CD/cassette stereo shows its age with wear on the touch points. The twin-turbo 2.7L V6 was factory rated at 250HP/258 lb-ft when new and bolts to a 5-speed automatic, a Torsen center diff and quattro complete the drivetrain. The adaptive air suspension is still on-board.
2014 Audi S8 (36,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.25.2025 1:08 PM EDT
This Glacier White metallic sedan is well-equipped with a black full leather package, leather shift knob, Driver Assistance and Lane Assist packages, Alcantara headliner, and B&O Advanced Sound. Clear paint protection film was applied to the front bumper cover and the front section of the hood and front fenders in 2017. It rolls on black 20″ rotor wheels held in place by an adaptive air suspension. The optional OEM 21” rotor wheels comes with the sale. The twin-turbo 4.0L V8 is Audi rated at 520HP/481 lb-ft and connects with an 8-speed Tiptronic to spin all four wheels. Carfax reports two owners and no accidents or damage.
2023 Audi R8 V10 Performance Coupe RWD (1,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.26.2025 1:00 PM EDT
As seen in Tuesday’s Find of the Day, this listing started out less than perfect—a practically new car without its window sticker. But the owner finally got one from the dealership. Now we can see the exterior, listed as black, is actually Mythos Black metallic with body color side blades. The interior is also black with Anthracite inlays and a Premium package (Alcantara headliner, B&O sound, extended leather package, and illuminated door sills). The 5.2L V10 in this spec is Audi rated at 562HP/406 lb-ft and pairs with a 7-speed S tronic to drive only the rear wheels. The Carfax report is clean.
2001 Audi RS 4 Avant (27,000 Kilometers)
Bring a Trailer – 10.26.2025 2:22 PM EDT
G’day mate says this hot avant from Perth. Yeah, that Perth down under in Australia. While its listed as a 2001 model, the carVertical report lists the manufacture date as 01/2000 along with 18 km at that time, but also two damage reports. So there may be hope for U.S. import sooner than later. But let’s do some math first. Costs on top of the winning bid: 5% BaT fee, getting it to an eligible port in Australia, cleaning it per Dept. of Agriculture rules, shipping it, at least a 15% duty based on purchase price, and cost of retrieving it from an eligible U.S. port. Assuming an $80k winning bid based on recent sales, you’d be looking at roughly another $20k. The shipping costs are just basic estimates; you should get an estimate online from one or more companies before bidding. You may find it’s worth the price to own a right-hand drive long roof.
2007 Audi RS 4 Avant (119,000 Kilometers)
Cars & Bids – 10.27.2025 1:38 PM EDT
Lighting strikes again, this time north of the U.S. border and once again potential America buyers are frustrated by the 25-year rule. The Sprint Blue pearl fast long roof is a Swiss-import now in Quebec. The B7 generation is powered by a 4.2L V8, Audi rated at 420HP/317 lb-ft, and it spins a 6-speed manual. It now rides on KW3 coilovers. Inside the black interior are leather/Alcantara seats, a solar-powered sunroof, tinted windows, and a Kenwood touchscreen head unit with Bose sound. The selling dealer reports that the front bumper, hood, and driver-side fender were repainted due to rock chips.
2020 Audi SQ5 (58,000 Miles)
Cars & Bids – 10.27.2025 2:14 PM EDT
This dark shade of blue is Navarre Blue metallic and it’s over a black interior with Premium Plus trim, Fine Nappa leather seats, Carbon Atlas inlays, a panoramic sunroof, and Audi virtual cockpit. An S Sport Package adds red brake calipers, sport adaptive air suspension, and Sport diff. Powering the diff is a 3.0L turbocharged V6, factory rated at 349HP/369 lb-ft, via an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports two owners and no accidents or damage.
2017 Audi RS 3 (39,000 Miles)
Cars & Bids – 10.28.2025 2:38 PM EDT
No Reserve. To start with, red cars are faster but this Catalunya Red metallic example has been made much faster courtesy of a Unitronic Stage 2 ECU tune and Stage 3 TCU tune for the 2.5L I5 and the 7-speed S tronic, respectively. But the mods don’t stop there, please read the listing for all the mod details, the Recent Service History, and the comments. Inside the black interior are leather S Sport seats, RS carbon decorative inlays, and a Technology package. Carfax reports three owners and no accident/damage. I suspect this was the Audi Press car for the model release.
2017 Audi Q7 (76,000 Miles)
Car & Bids – 10.28.2025 3:10 PM EDT
This SUV is the first one in Tofane White Crystal Effect paint we’ve seen on Auction Watch. It’s a Prestige trim-level car with a black interior, 3-row leather seating, tinted windows, and a panoramic sunroof. The supercharged 3.0L V6, Audi rated at 333HP/325 lb-ft, bolts to an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports two owners and minor damage in December 2019 due to an object hitting the car. The windshield was replaced one month later, coincidence?
2007 Audi RS 4 (96,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.28.2025 3:13 PM EDT
This fast sedan is Phantom Black pearl with a ceramic coating, see the seller’s long comment for details. The black interior has Nappa leather seats, carbon fiber trim, a Premium Package, Audi Navigation Plus, and aftermarket speakers with a JL Audio subwoofer in the trunk. Stasis coilovers have replaced the Dynamic Ride Control. The 4.2L V8 was factory rated at 420HP/317 lb-ft when new, exhales into a Milltek exhaust, and spins a 6-speed manual. The clean Carfax reports four owners but the parking lights don’t work, there is condensation in the headlights, and the wiring harness is recommended for repair. From the aforementioned comment it sounds like some suspension work is a good idea as well.
2002 Audi TT Coupe ALMS Commemorative Edition (129,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.28.2025 3:33 PM EDT
No Reserve. The is 1 of the 500 ALMS editions finished in Misano Red pearl, it has paint protection film on the front of the car. Inside are contrasting Silver Silk Nappa leather seats, a P3 digital combination gauge, and a Kenwood CD stereo with Bluetooth and Bose sound. Mods include a Bilstein suspension kit, aftermarket sway bars, StopTech brake calipers, and slotted 2piece GiroDisc rotors up front. The 6-speed manual is actuated via a short-throw shifter with a weighted knob. The turbocharged 1.8L I4 has a Neuspeed Power Module and P-Flo intake, and a Borla exhaust. Carfax reports five owners and no accidents/damage.
2014 Audi Q7 TDI (152,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.28.2025 3:56 PM EDT
No Reserve. Again, I have a hard time calling an SUV a truck, especially when it comes from a company that doesn’t make trucks. So ignore that part of this Carrara White SUV’s description. Inside the black interior are three rows of leather seating, brushed aluminum trim, Audi MMI Navigation infotainment, and a CD stereo with Bose sound. The turbodiesel 3.0L V6, factory rated at 240HP/406 lb-ft, bolts to an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports this is a one-owner car with very minor damage to the right side in June 2015 and damage to the right side in January 2019.
2024 Audi RS 6 Avant Performance (7,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.29.2025 2:36 PM EDT
This halo long roof is optioned with the Matte Carbon, RS Design, Executive, and Driver Assistance packages, RS Sport suspension plus DRC, and a Sport exhaust. Its Mythos Black metallic paint is covered with satin protective film. The black interior has Valcona leather seats with Rock Gray stitching, carbon fiber trim, Audi MMI Touch infotainment with Navigation Plus, and B&O 3D sound. The twin-turbo plus mild-hybrid 4.0L V8, rated 621HP/627 lb-ft in this spec, is linked to an 8-speed Tiptronic and Sport diff. The Carfax report is clean.
2021 Audi RS 5 Coupe (50,000 Miles)
Cars & Bids – 10.29.2025 3:26 PM EDT
That Turbo Blue with its Black Optic package really pops in the sunlight on this modified B9. The twin-turbo 2.9L V6 now runs 034Motorsport Stage 1+ ECU tune, inhales through a 034Motorsport X34 air intake, and exhales into an Fi EXHAUST system. The 8-speed Tiptronic shift to a 034Motorsport Stage 2 TCU tune. Please read the listing for more mods. OEM equipment in the black interior includes RS Driver Assistance and Navigation packages, a panoramic sunroof, and B&O 3D sound. Carfax reports minor damage to the front in April 2025. The seller reports that the brake rotors are due for replacement.
2008 Audi RS 4 (119,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 10.29.2025 4:17 PM EDT
This Avus Silver pearl fast sedan listed on BaT back in June 2022 and bid to $23,250 but didn’t sell. It was subsequently purchased by the seller. The black interior has Nappa leather seats with contrasting piping, Piano Black trim, JHM Solid short-throw shifter, an INVERY Bluetooth adapter, and an Audi Symphony CD stereo. Drivetrain: a 4.2L V8 (420HP/317 lb-ft_, a 6-speed manual, and quattro. Please see the listing for recent service. An adjustable Bilstein B16 suspension kit was installed in 2023.
