There’s something about a primary-ish blue Audi Avant that just seems right. You can thank the original Audi RS2 for starting that theme… or at least sending it into icon status, but every medium blue Avant since definitely hits this note in some capacity. And while the car you see here isn’t a rare 1 of 25 Audi RS 6 RS Tribute Edition, it is a C8 long roof in a color you’d be forgiven for mistaking as Nogaro Blue.
It’s not Nogaro Blue though, and how we know this deserves calling out. Yes, this blue is unlike any of the conservative and forgettable factory A6 allroad colors, so we already knew it’s an Audi exclusive build. Such cars are easy enough to find on classified sites, but knowing whether it’s any number of medium blues depending on lighting for the photography can be a real challenge. Even Audi dealers, more often than not, don’t include the name of the Audi exclusive color in an online listing. So, when a Ford dealership in Tennessee lists it, we don’t exactly have high hopes. Or, more accurately, when Ford of Franklin confirms the color in the listing, Firmament Blue to be exact, it’s worth calling out and offering a golf clap.
The car in question (VIN# WAU92BF23MN037703) is also a nice spec beyond just the color. It’s a 2021 Prestige package car (Audi’s Best on the Good, Better, Best scale), and includes full body paint over the fender flares for a sportier appearance. This fresh trade has also covered 26,909 miles. Listed at $55,382 it’s roughly half the price of the equivalent RS 6, getting you a fair degree of the big body Audi long roof experience at a fraction of the RS 6 price.
