Back in January, I took a look at the fan-favorite RS4:
Many of these are tempting in the 20k-range, but as I said in that listing you may be better off looking for a lower-mile, better-cared-for example. While you’re there, you might as well get one in the signature color – Sprint Blue Pearl Effect. That’s what we have here – so what will it cost to get into?

Admittedly, Lux Sport isn’t telling us much about this car’s history. But it sure looks great, is a great color combination, and has less than half the mileage that the last example had. Were I going to get one of these, an example like this would be on my short list to consider. That said, is it worth more than twice what the other one was? Well, its near twin sold in 2021 for just about the same asking price as this one on Bring a Trailer. Personally I prefer the lighter interior, but the BaT example also had disclosed maintenance. If you want a Sprint Blue RS4 in the 70k-mile range, it looks like you’re going to pay a premium.

The B7 RS4 is, after the R8 manual (both v8 and v10 versions), the best Audi ever built. Only made for 2 years, it has an amazing torquey and high revving V8, one of the best gearboxes ever and perfect styling. It is comfortable and durable. An all-time great.
