1995 Audi S6 Avant

After living in New England for a few years, one thing is certain. The folks in that region love their Audi Quattros. Along with Saabs (RIP) and Subarus, these cars rule the roads. Last week, Carter featured a Tornado Red S6 Avant and now here comes another one with a little more mileage for sale in Connecticut. If it’s speed, practicality and all-weather capability you’re after, fewer vehicles offer such a balanced combination than this 20 valve beast. Many thanks to our reader Zac at Classic Car Club Manhattan for bringing this S6 to our attention!

I’m sad to hear the reasoning behind the seller wanting to offload this car. I understand that sometimes people just want an easier car to drive. Hopefully cars getting offloaded like this can find good homes with enthusiasts who will look after them. Besides the RS2 and current S5 Coupe, these C4 S6 Avants are one of my favorite fast Audis. The S6 we featured last week gained a lot of interest rather quickly at $6,900. If this car is mechanically sound as is described and is truly rust free, it’s a good deal at $5,900. As Carter alluded to last week, at these prices, you aren’t going to get much in the way of mint condition performance from Mercedes-Benz or BMW these days.

    This one has more miles than the red one. Still a great car with a lot of life left.

    I like how many C4 S cars have been featured here recently, from a purely objective standpoint this truly is one of the best modern classics for people who live in regions of the country with inclement weather. When cared for they really do stand the test of time, even when driven regularly. Now if they could just see a resurgence in value, I would be happy.

    Sorry Steve, I had meant to say more, not less miles. Corrected now.

    Regards,

    It does look mint. Given the location the “absolutely no rust” bit will require verification.

    Not for the first time I wish I was close enough to drive over and take a look.

    It blows my mind that the listing for this is still out there. I would have thought it would sell as soon as it got noticed.

    Anyone on here go look at it?
