Anyone on here used to own this S4?

**BDP** · 03-10-2016 08:20 AM

I ask because it's a color I don't see often...Glut Orange? I'm kicking the tires on a transfer to my state. Anyone see anything wrong with it based on the pictures?

Wow, looks like a taxi.

**Joker S4** · 03-10-2016 08:25 AM

I believe that's an exclusive color. I don't see anything other than it being dirty. Would be awesome for a two tone interior.

Very unique, I wish I had the stones to sport that color. Appears to have good options with ADS and sport diff, carbon inlays.

(I'm a dealer) It has a clean history, no accidents. Was originally a California car. Price seems to be fair. The most recent sales with similar mileage sold for $36-$39k. I personally like the color but would be concerned about resale value with the color.

Ask them to do a little better because of the off color and see what they say.

Yes the color does have me a little concerned on resale. It is for sure an enthusiast color. Thanks for checking all that out for me...much appreciated!

Your welcome, glad I could be of some help to a fellow enthusiast. Sometimes us used car dealers get a bad rap!

It looks awesome, price looks great too. It's missing a pedal for my liking lol

**BDP** · 03-10-2016 09:08 AM

Shouldn't the Alu fin on the bottom be silver/chrome? Forgive me I'm still researching these cars and I've never seen it the same color as the paint on the car.

**Arn560** · 03-10-2016 09:16 AM

Doesn't look like a factory color; probably wrapped. Nice car though. It has the flat bottomed steering but no B&O (Premium) I'm sure the B&O is part of the prestige package.

**HeymyAudi** · 03-10-2016 09:26 AM

That color is poppin!

Glut orange is an Audi exclusive color, that car isn't wrapped.

It is a factory exclusive color, think its a $6,000 option roughly..., and all B8.5s have the flat bottomed wheel regardless of trim.

OP looks like a pretty good deal, and I love the color!!

The B8.5's don't have a diffuser panel on the front. The entire bumper is body color. That car does have a wrapped/painted/dipped front grille, window trim, and emblems.

Also, the CarMax listing says that car in non-transferable to another state.

**jlaudio** · 03-10-2016 10:18 AM

one of my favorite exclusive colors. if the car was closer to me and had 6MT i'd be putting a deposit on it right now.

That's only because they haven't titled it yet. Once it is, it will be around $849 to transfer it to Ohio. I did notice the plasti dipped parts. I'm curious about the fin under the doors that is generally silver/chrome but in the case of this car it's the same color as the car.

**968Reckless** · 03-10-2016 10:23 AM

Seems like a great investment. Price is on point, good mileage, clean car and there will always be someone interested in that color.

The Alu side blades are a special option that very few cars have. That car is definitely better off without.

**priceprince** · 03-10-2016 10:36 AM

There's an imola yellow black optics b8 with a stick up in Seattle on autotrader that I keep looking at the past couple months. So pretty, but I think I'd get tired of a bright yellow car.

**mojangles69** · 03-10-2016 11:11 AM

Such a great color. Reminds me of the Papaya on the RS4's. Have to be bold to have this color but I'd do it in a heartbeat. Great to be different and not the same ish as everyone else.

Didn't someone here claim to have the ONLY one in NA and a guy with a RS7 was looking for one? Couldn't sworn I saw a thread regarding that.

Nevermind. It was solar orange. Disregard!

Under hood sheetmetal/strut towers too? I dont think it is a wrap personally.

You're correct, thank you. That was a stupid oversight on my part as I did not get past the exterior photos.

haha no worries, I figured as much.

**BDP** · 03-10-2016 11:42 AM

I just had the monroney sticker emailed to me from Audi. It's a legit Audi exclusive color. It appears to be a $2500 option. Other options include MMI/Nav, B&O, Sports Differential, Carbon Inlays and Audi Advanced Key. It was stickered for $59,395.

Thanks for thinking of me! I love it, but looking for a manual if possible for a fun daily driver to make stage 3.

I think it has S5 peelers too.

No problem

ah, that's right! Well then, the search continues!!!

**simbat** · 03-10-2016 12:53 PM

Very unique colour. If I was on the market for an auto S4 i would buy it. You can also get the 7 years Carmax warranty !

What is the color of this car listed on the monroney label? Glut, solar, papaya? So many oranges! I won't be happy until I have this color.

**SepangS4me** · 03-10-2016 03:07 PM

Looks like a great deal on a unique car. I'd be curious to find out how many S4s were sold in that color.

Came here to say the same thing.

**GalaxyS4** · 03-10-2016 03:40 PM

Pretty sure i saw this car being driven not too long ago in the Glendora area. The color caught my eye from a mile away. Great looking color and solid price.

You know I looked and it doesn't say. It just says Audi exclusive color.

**Johnnycash** · 03-10-2016 10:11 PM

seems like a decent price with the options, if you dont mind the extra attention and can pull off that color id say do it!

I believe the offset is lower giving it a more aggressive/concave appearance. Those peelers looked different to me as well. I guess that's why.
