Find of the Day: 1 of 8 2015 Audi R8 V10 Le Mans

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="50005"] words: Bill, photos: GTA Motorcars Soooo yesterday I was ranting that my B5 RS 4 Avant should have won last week's Find of the Day episode but I totally forgot about this selection: a 1 of 8 2015 Audi R8 V10 Le Mans edition in Sepang Blue. George's choice won its round and the overall award...sorry Jacob. The ad for it is very bare bones but luckily we had our resident Audi Nerd, George, to fill in the blanks. It shows up at the 43 minute...

Find of the Day: Throwdown Edition Episode 6: Volkswagen vs Audi

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="48557"] words: Bill Episode 6 was different. We've pitted chapters against chapters but this time, we went head to head with Team Volkswagen.

Find of the Day: 2002 Audi allroad – Winner of the Beater Category

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="47929"] words: Bill, photos: Craigslist In Episode 4 of our weekly Find of the Day: Throwdown Edition, our 1st category was Beaters under $3,000.

Here's the (very short a...

Find of the Day: Weekly Throwdown Edition Episode 1 Recap and a Preview of Episode 2

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="47292"] words: Bill So Episode 1 of the Find of the Day: Throwdown Edition is in the bag and what a fun and learning experience it was. All of our guests brought their A game and as we had hoped, there was great discussion and banter amongst everyone but the questions remains...which Audi S2 should have been crowned as THE Find of the Day? Will Barber's 600hp S2 hillclimb race car or Jamie Orr's S2 Avant? John Acton may actually buy the ur-S4 ...
