words: Bill, photos: Audi Wyoming Valley Back in 2021, the Audi Club Sweepstakes gave away the most sought-after enthusiast vehicle to come out of Audi in a long time. It was also the most expensive prize ever given away from the sweepstakes. After nine months of promotional giveaways and anticipation, the winner was chosen- Al Nuener from the Eastern Pennsylvania chapter. But that's not the end of the story. Audi Club not only gave away ...

Over a year ago (it seems like a lifetime), we were talking about our next sweepstakes. Our previous one had ended and the prize was a choice between an RS 5 Coupe, an RS 5 Sportback, or an e-tron SUV. At that time, it was the most expensive prize Audi Club had ever offered. "Why not think bigger?"
The newest and hottest Audi had just been announced for North America and we had to get our hands on one. The Audi RS 6 Avant was finally co...

We are coming down to the last couple of weeks before someone is named the new owner of an Audi exclusive RS 6 Avant with goodies from Audi Accessories, Thule, Griot's Garage, and Mountain Hardwear so we decided to go out with a bang.
quattro Magazine was fortunate enough to interview Audi Sport designer, Ivan Shmatov, for the Q2_2021 issue (you can read about Ivan HERE) and he gladly designed the cover of the issue...

Nogaro Blue and Avant brings the killer Audi RS 6 Avant RS Tribute edition to mind but this isn't that. 25 Tribute editions made it to the States but I wonder how many B8 A4 Avants in Nogaro Blue are here? I can't remember when I last saw a B8/B8.5 Avant that wasn't an allroad and I live on the East Coast where wagons are almost everywhere and in fact, this Avant is located in Maryland. Not only is t...

There's nothing better than an Audi RS 6 Avant except for maybe a limited edition Nogaro Blue RS 6 Avant RS Tribute edition. With only 25 examples of the Tribute edition imported to the States, it's tough to get your hands on one. We may have a consolation prize though.
If you read our blog regularly, you may remember a series of posts called Don�...

Ok, I tried not to have RS 6 Avants as Finds of the Day because it's just low hanging fruit. BUT the only other one we featured was an RS Tribute edition and with only 25 of them imported to the States, I had no choice. I mean it would have been irresponsible for me not to post that. And now...oops, I did it again. Regardless of the mileage on this one (it's only 43 miles by the way), i...

Ok...going to have to say that I've never seen an RS 5 in the most iconic color of all: Nogaro Blue. Well now I can scratch that off my list. Here is a 2014 B8.5 RS 5 found on our Facebook Audi Club North America Classifieds page. This combination is definitely a head turner: the growl of that 4.2 will make you look but that color will make your eyes stay on it s it moves past. Here's the ad:

Goodwood, Gotland, Viper, Kyalami, Sonoma...these are some of the greens Audi offers but there's one green that I haven't run across until today: Micromata Green. I gotta say, I love it and it being on an R8 V10 plus Spyder is just icing on the cake. Claimed as the only Micromata Green R8 V10 plus Spyder in the US, it will definitely make you look twice. Here's the ad:

Audi of America product planners occasionally get to roll out micro batches of special edition cars and 2015 probably saw some of the most colorful ideas to come out of Herndon. The so-called 'Skittles' S3s were a batch of 25 cars equally split between 5 colors: Vegas Yellow, Viper Green, Sepang Blue, Misano Red, and Glut Orange. The paint wasn't the only touch; each car got an Audi exclusive leather package w...

For our first Find of the Day on e-tron connect, we present this. You may wonder why we are featuring an A3 Sportback e-tron. It’s a Premium so not well equipped but there’s a story about this one…we think. The 1st thing you’ll notice is the color. We rarely, if ever, have seen Audi exclusive on an A3 e-tron. We confirmed with Audi of America’s Audi exclusive manager that this one was ordered...

*Bing* I awoke to the sound of a message coming through and was it a good one. Well, good could be a relative term. Emre sent me this R8 V10 performance with no comment and maybe no comment was needed. This is an Audi exclusive Zanzibar Brown R8 V10 performance. I don't remember if I've ever seen this color before. Here's the ad:

My cup runneth over. Ever since Season 1 of our Find of the Day: Throwdown Edition ended, I've been flooded with great FOTDs like the 1986 Audi Sport quattro S1 E2 Tribute...why couldn't these have popped up when we were playing the game? I might have actually won one. Wait, I did win the last episode. Hooray for me. Any way, enough about me. Here's the star you've been waiting for: a 1994 Audi RS2 Avant in...

As I prepared to fly solo on last night's Find of the Day: Throwdown Edition, I couldn't help but look back at last week's Audi Club vs Audi of America episode. While our guests were winning round after round, a vocal group of viewers were proclaiming that George should have won two of the rounds: Audi dealer stock and Audi classic. Here they are:

Short story of how this color came to be on the Western Suburbs of Chicago:
Audi exclusive is a division within Audi that offers a number of customizations and colors that can make the model of your choice with the four rings truly yours and one of a kind. Continental Audi had a client order a quite interesting shade of orange called Aventurine Orange (factory code 2487) on an S5 Coupe a...
