We're seeing the slow wind down of ICE vehicles so why not treat yourself not only to the king of longroofs but an Audi exclusive one? This is a 2023 Audi RS 6 Avant in Merlin Purple. It's a color that evokes feelings of lust...or feelings of no thanks. Here's the ad:

By day two of a new model introduction, you can usually find us digging Around the Audi Germany website Audi.de. Typically there’s new information there (in German) with photos and possibly a live configurator. So, we headed there following this week’s Q8 and SQ8 launch to see what we might find.
Spoiler alert, the configurators aren’t live. Sorry. Also, RS Q8 and Q8 TFSI e (the plug-in hybrid) aren’t showing facelift updates just...

If you're a connoisseur of Audi exclusive's special factory builds, look no further than this S5 Sportback listed for sale at Porsche Atlanta Perimeter. While we've not yet been able to confirm the paint color, the exterior is listed as an Audi exclusive color confirmed by our sources as Mamba Black.
Beyond that, the interior is clearly tailored and we've been able to confirm Cognac brown leather on the seats and steering wheel, with night blue sti...

I'm always on the lookout for interesting Finds of the Day and occasionally, I will wander across the Atlantic to see what's up in Europe. Being that I'm located in the States, I need to look for cars that will be allowed under the 25-year rule and this one hits that. This is a 1995 Audi S6 Avant 4.2l V8 with a manual transmission and it's an Audi exclusive color. At least that's what the ad says but I am unclear when A...

If you're a TT enthusiast, then heads up because one of the most desirable special edition TT RS models just came available in California and appears to be listed by a private party in Newport Beach, California. Back in 2022, Audi of America did a send off for the TT RS called the Heritage Edition. Only 50 cars were built, including five different color combinations based on classic Audi colors. There were only 10 of each color.

If you were on the market for a very special RS 6 Avant, we're not sure you could do much better than this one. The long roof you see here was special ordered as Audi exclusive inside and out. It's painted Porsche Oak Green Metallic (not to be confused with Audi Oak Green Metallic), while on they inside it received Havanna Brown leather with Alabaster White stitching. It's also got a few tasteful modifications, making it the perfect specimen for s...

The RS e-tron GT is new enough in Audi of America's lineup that tailored Audi exclusive versions are still relatively rare. So, when they do pop up, we definitely take notice... especially if it's an iconic and sought-after color like Nogaro Blue.
This particular version is especially interesting, because it's both highly desirable and new inventory (so available). It's currently sitting in inventory at Audi Lancaster in central Pennsylvania. Yes, ...

I've said it before but there's something about Audi and the color blue. There are so many great shades but one seems to always stand out: Nogaro Blue. Audi of America celebrated it by offering the RS 6 Avant RS Tribute edition to pay honor to the RS2 Avant of legend. If you missed out on the Tribute but still need the space, you should check out this Audi exclusive Q7. Here's the ad:

This week is turning into an Audi exclusive Find of the Day week. Today, we present the Audi RS 5 Sportback. What makes this RS 5 different from others? First of all, it's a Panther edition. Only 100 were sent to the States back in 2019; 75 Sportback and 25 Coupes. Here's the ad:

Occasionally I type in Audi exclusive in the keywords section of search engines and while most places don't know what Audi exclusive means, others do. For example, this 2022 Audi RS 7 popped up in the latest search and it's a pretty bold one. Here's the ad:

I look for Finds of the Day that are unique, super, desirable, unobtainable, or just what I like. Purportedly 1 of 1, this Audi exclusive British Racing Green RS 3 probably fills most of those categories for me and I've seen this one in person before. Here's the ad:

The Audi exclusive program is great if you want to make your Audi personal and unique. It's obvious that the original owner of the RS 7 dove into the color palette and chose a color that is definitely unique and probably polarizing. Here's the ad:

These days, it takes a different RS 6 Avant for me to feature as a Find of the Day and I think this qualifies. Claimed to be the only Tactical Green one, it is also owned by Graham Rahal. Graham is an American race car driver currently racing in the IndyCar Series. He's also the son of Bobby Rahal, winner of the 1986 Indianapolis 500. Aside from the eye-catching color, this RS 6 Avant has just...

Editor's Note: We spoke with an Audi of America contact to ask if any of these were going to make it to the States. They said that the TT RS was done with the 2022 model year and the TT RS Heritage Edition was our (USA) final version.

Normally, I would not post a Q7 as a Find of the Day unless it was an ABT Q7 or something weird like the Q7 limo we featured a couple of months ago but this one...wait until you see the interior combined with the green exterior. This is an Audi exclusive build and somebody spent a lot of money building this Q7. Here's the ad:

If you've got a weakness for the bespoke, then you'll certainly appreciate this low mileage (8,622 miles to be exact) used 2021 S6 found at Audi Columbia. In addition to well optioned with Prestige Package trim levels, the car was ordered with the very familiar Nogaro Blue exterior paint and paired also with a most unique Arras Read Leather interior.
It's worth hat-tipping Audi Columbia in South Carolina on this one too. Not only is this a very tasteful build in their used fleet, but they to...
What better way to spend a summer day than driving down a great back road, top-down, in an Audi exclusive convertible. Samoa Orange Metallic was a popular color in 2010, about the same time the R8 GT arrived on the scene and searing the dark amber paint color in everyone's brains.
We found this Prestige-level S5 Cabriolet on Craigslist in Woodland, WA. Being a pre-facelift B8 S5 and a Cabriolet to boot, this means it has the 3.0T supercharged engine, and this one has logged about 12...

These were a batch of 25 cars equally split between 5 colors: Vegas Yellow, Viper Green, Sepang Blue, Misano Red, and Glut Orange. Each car got an Audi exclusive leather package with contrast stitching including covered door armrests and knee pads, Audi exclusive leather controls with contrast stitching includi...
