Find of the Day: 1998 Audi A6 Avant in Casablanca White

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="88673"] photos: Steve Kujala When I think of a white big bodied Audi from the 90s, I immediately picture Pearl White but this C4 Avant is not that...it's Casablanca White. I admit that I am not familiar with this color at all and according to Audi of America, it's a 1 of 10 so I wonder how many people have actually seen this shade of white in person. Here's the ad: [gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="88681"] Hey guys, up for sale i...

Find of the Day: 2010 V10 Swapped A6 Avant

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="88631"] photos: Jacob Lauck Ask any Audi enthusiast what their favorite body style is and most would say the Avant (totally unscientific fact not backed up by anything other than my own personal opinion as a wagon enthusiast). Before the arrival of the C8 RS 6 Avant and A6 allroad, the last big Avant we got in the States was the C6 3.0T V6. For many, that was good enough but to Audi Club member Jake (whom we affectionately call Jake from Kansas C...

Find of the Day: 2007 Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 Manual in Monterey Blue

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="88437"] photos: cars & bids With the Audi Club crew gearing up to attend the Legends of the Autobahn during Monterey Car Week, it seemed appropriate to feature a Monterey Blue Lamborghini as a Find of the Day as Monterey is literally crawling with Lamborghinis during the week. According to VinWiki's Ed Bolian (current high bidder as of publication): This is 1 of 23 US Manual LP640 coupes (10 Roadsters). 1 of 88 manual LP640 coupes worldwide a...

Find of the Day: OEM Plus Green A6 allroad on Cars & Bids (Spoiler Alert)

[gallery columns="1" size="full" link="file" ids="87556"] In the Audi lineup, the C8 A6 allroad is an unsung hero. Crossovers tend to get all the volume, but the A6 allroad takes up a special place. Its presence allowed the RS 6 to be federalized, and it's a substantive long roof in its own right, with turbocharged V6 and adjustable air suspension. And at about half the price of the RS 6, it's a veritable bargain. So is it an RS 6-light then? Well, in some specs that's a reach but in the spec o...

Find of the Day: 1 of 10 Malachite Green 2022 TT RS Heritage Edition in California

[gallery columns="1" size="full" link="file" ids="87090"] 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. [galler...

Find of the Day: Corporate HQ Catalunya Red Audi e-tron at Audi Wichita

[gallery columns="1" size="full" link="file" ids="87077"] Think of it like high stakes Hot Wheels Treasure Hunts, but we're always fans of finding special build cars in the distribution system and sharing them with friends in the know. Case in point is this Catalunya Red Audi e-tron found at Audi Wichita in Kansas. Believe it or not, it's not an Audi exclusive color. The color, on the orange side of the red spectrum, Catalunya Red harkens the 80s Audi ur quattro rally cars and was populari...

Find of the Day: Perfect Spec B5 S4 Avant

[gallery columns="1" size="full" link="file" ids="87052"] There's no doubt it's getting harder and harder to find a good B5 S4. So many were either modified or driven hard, with mileage or wear being costly concerns. Finding a clean one, much less one in a perfect spec like Nogaro Blue with blue Alcantara interior and 5-speed manual can be a near impossibility. So, when we see what looks like a good example, we raise the flag with a Find of the Day. [gallery columns="1" size="full" link="file"...

Find of the Day: Built OEM Plus Audi 200 20V Avant on BaT Ends in Hours

[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="86549"] If you're a fan of the so-called "Large Chassis Audi" segment (anything C or D segment, typically older) then you'll know that a 1991 Audi 200 20V Avant is one of the most sought-after. This was the last of the C3-generation for Audi, and it was the only year where the 200 got the more robust 20-valve (3B) 5-cylinder turbo. A manual transmission was the only choice, assuring this would be a wagon enthusiast's car like few others. Only 150 Avants wer...

Find of the Day: Nogaro Blue RS 6 Tribute on CarsAndBids

[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="85712"] When Audi launched the current RS 6 Avant into the U.S. market in 2021, it led the charge with the "RS Tribute Edition", a model built to pay homage to the iconic RS2 of the 1990s. Only 25 examples were built to an identical spec, featuring Nogaro Blue paint, red brake calipers, silver optic 5-spoke wheels, black optic trim, and blue-stitched interior with additional leather on surfaces such as seat base sides. With just 25 built, this already made...

Find of the Day: Savage Garage’s Audi Sport quattro S1 E2 Rally Car Tribute on Bring-A-Trailer

[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="85654"] An Audi Sport quattro S1 E2 rally car is a priceless thing, so the building of replicas has become a much repeated art for those who want their own versions of Audi's most bonkers Group B rally car. In theory then, you could buy one, build it and run it without the concerns of hurting something priceless. It's a grand idea. Case in point is this specimen, reportedly built in Poland out of a 1984 Audi 80 chassis. It's popped up for sale on Bring-...

Find of the Day: Nogaro Blue RS e-tron GT at Audi Lancaster

[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="85416"] 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, ...

Find of the Day: Clean Imola B5 S4 Avant on BaT

[gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="85134"] There's this bridge time for classic cars that moves from old and affordable so ripe for modification, on to old and in need of expensive repairs that may not happen, then on to old and classic where pristine and unmodified condition can pay off in spades. The B5-generation A4/S4/RS 4 is definitely reaching the latter status. So, when a clean example of an S4 Avant shows up on Bring a Trailer, it's worth noting... and watching. This example ...

Find of the Day: 1991 Audi 200 20V Avant on Bring a Trailer

Remember Ambassador Automobile, the small New Jersey? Kevin Ginsberg, the owner and former guest on our podcast, has built a niche in hard-to-find and well-preserved old Audi models. Kevin's a regular on auction sites like Bring-a-Trailer for the cars he finds. Take for example this 1991 200 20V in '90s-tastic Pearl White Metallic. If you didn't know, 1991 is the only year the C3 Audi 200 came with the 20-valve version (3B) of Audi's venerable 5-cylinder turbocharged engine. A manual was the ...
