Audi exclusive RS 3 in #2D8 Green

  We're not 100% sure this is the color code #2D8  known simply as "Green" on the standard Audi exclusive color chart, but there's really nothing else like it in the "standard" offering from Audi's in-house tailoring department. What we are 100% sure of is that Audi UK's PR photography is on point in choosing such a special build for a photo shoot. To our eye, this is the exact same green Audi of America put on five of its Color.Storm mix of S3s run in the pre-facelift genera...

words: Bill Cho, photos: Pepper Yandell 25, 5, 1...500. Numbers plucked from the air but these have meaning.

One because this one is for sale and 500...well that's how many horses live under this Viper Green hood. Owner Ryan Blair, like the owner of our last FOTD, is a pure Audi-phile. He is a Master Guild Audi Technician who wo...

Audi exclusive Graphite Blue RS 3 at Audi Fort Collins

We're always fans of tailored builds from the catalogue of Audi exclusive, even moreso though when the person choosing the car's final spec goes with something both familiar and yet not terribly common. Such a move, as seen here on this Graphite Blue RS 3 at Audi Fort Collins, tends to give a fresh look to both a familiar a car a perhaps familiar paint color should you also be a Porsche fan. Of course, the RS 3 needs no introduction. Audi's A3 sedan fitted with the brand's best sporting k...

Find of the Day: 2008 Audi exclusive RS 4 Sedan in Phantom Black Pearl

words: Bill Cho, photos: Kelly Motorcars Every once in awhile (ok, pretty much every day), I look for cool cars for sale on the internet. Today, I ran across this 2008 RS 4. I see RS 4s come up for sale on a regular basis but what caught my eye on this one was the mileage listed- an almost unbelievable 9,650 miles. I say almost unbelievable because there isn't an actual photo of the odometer with the car on in the ad. The second thing I noticed was that this RS 4 is an Audi exclusive m...

Audi exclusive Sonoma Green RS 6 Avant. You’re Welcome.

Even though the Audi RS 6 Avant isn't available in the USA, it still gets legendary status amongst enthusiasts. Who doesn't love a high horsepower station wagon... much less one in the same Sonoma Green Metallic paint tone that's been getting so much attention on the new RS 5 coupé. Throw in brown leather and we suspect this is the sort of car that could create its own cult following. Yes, in some ways we know this is a tease. Cars like this RS 6 Avant aren't currently available in t...

Audi exclusive Cumulus Blue S5 Sportback at Oktoberfest with Audi Pittsburgh

While the autumn foliage may have been made up of warm yellow and amber orange, an Audi S5 Sportback we encountered last weekend while at Next Level Tuning's Oktoberfest event in Western, PA was anything but. The car, part of the current inventory at Audi Pittsburgh, was painted an icy cool Audi exclusive hue by the name of Cumulus Blue. Parked and situated, we approached the driver. It turns out that Pat McCulloch is a major Audi enthusiast who works in the service department at Audi Pit...
