Find of the Day: No-Reserve Nogaro Blue B5 Audi S4 Loaded With Upgrades

If modified cars scare you then you might want to stop reading right now. But for the more adventurous, this 2002 Audi S4 sedan listed on Cars & Bids could be the Nogaro Blue dream you have been waiting for. It is listed with no reserve, so you could land a great car at a great price. Let’s dig into the details.

A B5 Audi S4 in Nogaro Blue with a 6-speed manual transmission is an appealing car from the jump. This one has less than 55,000 miles and comes with a clean CarFax report. The car was originally optioned with the Premium, Enhanced Sport, and Cold Weather packages. Automatic climate control, an AM/FM/CD/cassette stereo, and a Bose sound system were also part of the original build. But this car has a lot more going for it than its original equipment.

Modifications include a GIAC ECU Stage 3 tune. K04 turbo and fueling kits, a 3-inch AWE Tuning exhaust system with high-flow catalytic converters, an AWE Tuning Drivetrain Stabilizer, Öhlins Motorsports 2-way coilovers, front and rear subframe braces, an Alcon front big brake kit, 18-inch Rays Engineering LE37 forged wheels, and Euro-spec headlights are some of the other big-ticket upgrades. Sounds like a good time to us.

In the past year maintenance work has included an A/C refresh, a transmission rebuild, MAF replacement, clutch slave cylinder and wipers replaced, and the brake fluid has been changed. Go back a little further and you will find additional maintenance items completed such as rear brake rotors and pads replaced in 2022 and a new battery last year. This is not a car that has been neglected. But it isn’t perfect either.

Most of the known flaws are cosmetic. The front bumper cover has some paint scuffs and cracks. The front driver’s wheel has curb rash, the instrument cluster pixels are failing, the Bose sound system doesn’t work and a few other odds and ends.

This car looks like an absolute hoot. The color is epic, the mods are tasteful and the condition is solid. If you are looking for that perfect last-minute holiday gift idea for yourself, this could be your ticket. Bidding ends on Friday, December 19.
