Burnt out S4, Whats it worth? (PICS)

[2k1audiS4]

What do you all think this is worth? Here what I can see would be good on it:

-Front mount IC with chopped front bumper
-Wheels(will most likely need a re-finish)
-Exhaust (looks like AWE twin)
-APR Bi-Pipe
-Motor does not look burnt but its a "?"
-Rear clip

I'm thinking of picking it up for the wheels and Front mount then parting the rest out. What do you guys think its worth. I was thinking around 1,200-1,500.

holy insurance job!

The original owner is on here, or was on here. He said his neighbors woke him up and said his car was on fire. Sucks.

[Rated S]

Tinted tails = $$$$

Honestly? I wouldn't pay more than $800 not knowing the condition of the engine.

[AudiTechS4]

hmm dont know but the wheels, tails ,trunk lid and motor look good i'd pick it up for a good price

[GramCracker]

I wouldn't be surprised if it had K04's.

But to OP, you LOVE your auction S4s don't you?

[Das General]

it doesn't have k04's, it has stock inlet pipes.


and iirc the old owner said it was stage 2+

[wasup0818]

that is a HOT CAR!!!

[GramCracker]

that is a HOT CAR!!!

It reminds me of the CarFax ad.

"Minor smoke damage" *delete*delete*delete* "This car is HOT!!!!!"

HAHA, yup. I have my S4 that I will have for a while. Now im just looking for a parts car. Or I might be slightly addicted to buying S4's(I have had 3 different ones in the last year). Either way though, when in Rome.

I wouldnt pay more than $1000. If the motor checks out okey that's worth at least $1500 than bumpers, frount mount, etc. I would think that the transmission would be good also. If you pay $1000 or less you can make at least close to 2k+ parting it out.

[s42k5b]

I would pay no more than 1300. What rims are those?

I do remember the owner posting about his car being on fire. He had pictures too. I was trying to find the post but havnt found it yet. If I remember right he had posted that something went wrong with it then that night it burned. I thought I had posted that it was a good thing that it burned because he would of spent a chunk of change fixing what ever problem it had.

I think he said it started because of a short from the radio or something???

Anyway. I wouldnt pay much for it. You dont know how the heat from the fire affected things on the car.

On side note with all these audi's you are buying or wanting to buy at auctions, you should get a job for Shokan

[s2000_s4_525]

How are the tires, my buddies s2000 got torched and he has some Ballin TE30 Volks and some crazy tires. Anyways the rims are fine but the tires are ROCK HARD!!.

[Reich]

Get the seats Nah.... How much are they asking for it. Could be a deal for parts

[Trigger Happy]

where do people go to find these auctions? I'm from the DC area and can never find ne!

[AudiA4_20T]

yo man snag that D3 inside it, MONEY!

here's the original thread from the owner

[burner799]

not worth 2 grand. too much of a headache.

[goohead]

hey bro if your serious about get that car let me know i can help you or something, i just want the back bumper and some engine stuff, i can even help you take off whatever you need off the car i have a personal garage in ct, also have many 10k in tools i can help you take off whatever you need. my s4 is in there now, engine is out, but all i have to do is change valve stem seals and headgasket, and install new control arms, i jsut waiting for a valve spring tool, once it arrives i can have all that done same day, have the engine back in and car out, less than 5 hours.

if you want i can strip that whole car for you, give me 2-3 day and i can get you whatever parts you want. i mean motor stripped apart and everything. i just dont do internal transmission work, so i cant take that apart, and if you need help selling anything of the engine stuff i have machining measurement tools, micrometers, bore gauge, dial indicators, etc to check clearance to make sure they are within spec for whoever wants to buy it. good tools too, not some cheap stuff, mitutoyo, starrett, etc

if you come from MD you can even chill out in ct if you want, you can hang out with my roommate, shes lonely and needs a man lol shes looks ok, but just annoying

[MacDaddy]

2K does seem a little high, you might be abel to make your money back if you sell every last piece off it, but that won't cover your man hours.

if the previous owner just left the door closed the fire wouldn't have caused as much damage, and would probably allow him enough time to find a fire extinguisher. fire loves oxygen.

[Jayco88]

i would of hosed the mofo down, i've got a karcher always in standby.

[AudiSportB5S4]

i really dont think that exhaust is a twin one... the tips do not look like mine

[S4 John]

it is a borla exhaust. where are you located? this was a CT car...

[2k1audiS4]

Im in MD. I was going to have it shipped down here for $575 if I could get it for like $800 then get it shipped I would only have around $1,375 in it. I dont know though it looks like it had a F**K ton of miles though.

[chris23]

Man, you guys pay waayyy too much for salvage...or i just get lucky. No way I'd pay over 5-600 for it...if that

[Iosilver]

Fire wall looks like it did it's job very well (for the engine) good luck brother

if you buy it, and pay for towing i can get it to my garage and strip off what you want then just ship it too you ... ill cut the bitch in 1/2 if i have too :)

[GramCracker]

This really isn't worth it. You can definately find a better parts car. Or find someone parting out.

[espo4442]

I rem the owner saying that he was having trouble with it overheating alot. then it caught fire lol that sucks.
