find of the day: 1997 Nogaro Blue Audi S6 Avant

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="57497"] words: Bill, photos: Cars & Classic Is there a more iconic color than Nogaro Blue for an Audi Avant? Nogaro Blue is synonymous with the RS2 and Audi reinforced that point with the RS 6 Avant RS Tribute edition here in the States. Needless to say, when a Nogaro Blue Audi shows up, it turns head. Now imagine if that Audi was a C4 Nogaro Blue S6 Avant...a right hand drive S6 Avant. Here's the ad: Audi UrS6 plus spec avantQuattro drivetra...

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="57116"] words: Bill, photos: MJ Motorsports With everyone going ga-ga over the RS 6 Avant (even us with our Audi Club RS 6 Avant Sweepstakes), we may tend to look over Avants of the past. Now while this may not be a twin turbo monster nor as a desirable color as Nogaro Blue but this B7 has something the RS 6 Avant doesn't...a manual transmission.

find of the day: 1985 Audi 4000S quattro

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="56879"] words: Bill, photos: Alex Kremer Growing up, I never did look at an Audi 4000 with starry eyes or even any eyes. It wasn't until much (much) later that I began to appreciate them. Maybe because up until that point, I had not driven one and was pretty ignorant about other Audi models outside of the Sport quattro or the 90 Coupe quattro my friend had in college. Joining Audi/Volkswagen forums in the late 90s/early 2000s, people were talking...
