There's a poster near my desk that has every Sport quattro made and what color they are. Of course, Tornado Red (128) dominates the palette followed by Alpine White (48), Copenhagen Blue (21), Malachite Green (15), and Black (2). This Sport quattro is one of the 21 Copenhagen Blue.I've seen Tornado Red and Malachite Green in person but not this color and I have to admit, it may be my favorite. Here's th...

You may or may not know this but the 1st generation Spyker C8s are powered bu Audi's 4.2L V8. It's not the high-revving one found in the RS 4 but rather the V8 found in the B6/7 S4. Spyker itself says that a Spyker isn't your 1sr supercar; it's your eighth. The original Spyker not only manufactured cars but also fighter aircrafts. You can see this history in their logo and also in some design features. He...

One of the very few pandemic adventures I had was going with a friend to buy a huge Audi sign from a former dealer. We took his pickup and carefully loaded the sign after wrapping it in blankets...it barely fit. This one however, you could probably put in the back of your Avant or Q7. 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:

This isn't the 1st RS Tribute we've featured as a Find of the Day; it happens to be our 3rd. I'm sure there have been others for sale that I didn't catch but for a vehicle that only twenty- were imported, it gives a chance for others to enjoy this rare model. Here's the ad:

This is the oldest Audi we've ever featured as a Find of the Day: a 1939 Wanderer W23 Cabriolet. Several years earlier in 1932, Wanderer was brought into the Auto Union/DKW/Horch fold so this is technically an Auto Union but it also wears the Wanderer logo. Here's the ad:

I just realized that this is the third big Audi sedan we've featured this week after the 1988 Audi 5000CQ Turbo quattro on Monday and the 2001 Audi S8 on Tuesday. It wasn't intentional; similar finds seem to fall in my lap at the same time. However, I don't think I'll get any complaints on this one. This is a 2003 Audi RS 6 sedan in Sprint Blue. Supposedly it's 1 of 1. I've said this before and I'll say...

Yesterday, we featured a 1988 Audi 5000CS Turbo quattro and today, it's another large Audi...the legendary D2 Audi S8 (I will refrain from making any Ronin references). While it does not have a manual transmission, it still has a presence even after two decades. Here's the ad:

When I think of B5 S4 colors, Nogaro Blue immediately comes to mind then followed by Imola Yellow and Brilliant Black but then, obviously, there are many colors they came in...including Cactus Green. Purportedly 1 of 54, it's rare enough and I have never seen a Cactus Green S4. This is a clean example of one. Here's the ad:

I want to start by first saying that we in the US can't buy this because of the 25-year law...not even our Canadian comrades can. Also, a car like this will have reactions - both for and against. While it may not be your style, it's still worth noting. 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...

When I 1st saw this car, I immediately flashed back to playing Gran Turismo. Those rings graphics sweeping up the side of the car is just so nostalgic. The Audi A4 quattro Super Tourer dominated in the short time it ran. It was so successful that ballast was added and added and added. The 4-cylinder wasn't as powerful as its rivals but the all-wheel drive powered the Audi A4 to victory after victo...

I bought a new car in early 1987 and by the time the year ended, it probably had close to 20k miles on it. Now imagine having a 35 year old car that only has 7k miles on it and it still looks brand new? That is the case with this 1987 Audi Coupe GT. Just look at the photos. Here's the ad:

Until the C8 RS 6 Avant hit the US, the B6/B7 S4 Avant with the 4.2 V8 was the best Avant we could have (my opinion of course). In fact, Jeremy Clarkson recently said the Audi 4.2 naturally aspirated V8 was in his top 3 engines ever made. Pair that with the panda interior AND a manual transmission? Oh man. Here's the ad:

The Audi 50 was only built for 4 years (1974-1978) while its rebadged Volkswagen stablemate the Polo is still in production. In that time, over 180k 50s were built but they were only sold in Europe. They had either a 1.1L or a 1.3L 4-cylinder; this one has the 1.1L. Here's the ad:
