Pricing my 2015 Audi S4 Prestige Nogaro Blue, Stage II for Sale

**GT-R & S4** · 04-03-2016 09:24 AM

SOLD
Well, now that I've had my '15 S4 Prestige for one year now, and have fixed it up pretty much to my liking, I'm thinking of the POSSIBILITY of selling it and going back to a GT-R. Where could I get an idea of a good selling price? I'm looking for a reasonable price, not a price to sell because I'm desperate. The car/build:

2015 Audi S4 Prestige, Sepang Blue, Nogaro Blue interior, Black Optics package, Technology package, 19" wheels, 11K miles
Daily driven, never tracked
GIAC Stage II engine and DSG tune performed by Induktion Motorsports
AWE Touring exhaust with resonated downpipes, 102mm black diamond tips
USP intakes
Ventureshield Clear Bra full front/sides to the doors
RS4 Blackout mesh style grille
License plate toe hook mount
Carbon fiber side mirror caps
Carbon fiber rear valance
Custom made floor mats byt Autostyle UK, royal blue with S4 logo and aluminum heel plate
Ultimat custom fit floor mats by Lloyd, black with blue piping
All weather S4 floor mats
OEM floor mats, never used
WeatherTech cargo liner, black
Sparco Alcantara seat belt harness should pads, blue, four
After market window tint, including Crystalline inside front windshield
Audicare 15/25/35/45 mile maintenance package
Garaged and always parked away from the masses

Since I've only owned the vehicle for a year, this may not be the optimum time to sell, but I think this is a unique, very nice looking, well taken care of, and very fast S4 and may be a good catch for an aspirant S4 owner.

Which parts? I would see first who might want to buy it with the complete package. If I would only get what a regular Prestige with the Nogaro would bring, then I probably would consider removing all the after market parts and selling separately. I did that with my previously-owned '09 GT-R, which was a FBO. I ended up getting around 75% back for all the parts, so my only other loss was the cost of installation and tuning.

You should definitely part it out...I will take the interior. Haha. On a serious note, do you have pictures of the floor mats? They may compliment my Nogaro very nicely.

**BlownOne** · 04-03-2016 09:49 AM

Honestly nada guide will give you accurate retail pricing and you can always stop by your local carmax for the best trade in value. Unfortunately the parts dont add value, so unless you swap back to stock and sell off the parts, it is what it is. GL

If I decide to sell, I'll send you pictures of the floor mats. They haven't been used yet and are still in the package. Expensive, though, because they are custom made to your specifications, and come from the UK.

When I get an idea of what a, "basic", 2015 S4 Prestige with all the options (not aftermarket) would sell for in the private party market, then I can think about returning the vehicle to stock and parting out. By the way, those are some good numbers for your '11 V. Was that on drag radials on a prepped track? Very good trap speed. I owned an '09 CTS-V sedan and an '11 CTS-V wagon, both stock. And in my persona opinion, I think the second generation looks better than the third. Especially the coupe.

Those were $400 :(. Better to wait for a good sale on them. But they definitely set the car apart, as does the carbon fiber rear valance and those 102mm black diamond tips, and mesh grille.

Top trade (wholesale): $47k

Top retail (dealer sale, higher than PP): $54.5k

I would expect to get around $51k or so on PP if your are patient.

Mods are worthless to a dealer and may actually get you less money. If you don't care about the hassle or removal, shipping, etc. then part it out as was said earlier.

**4RCFED** · 04-03-2016 10:37 AM

Are you thinking about getting the 2017 after they updated the interior and made it quieter inside?

No, too much for a new car, and too much of a hit on depreciation for my wallet. With respect to the updated interior, actually, the 2014 GT-R I previously owned had the red amber semi-aniline interior, which was quite nice. I don't know if I'd call it luxurious, but for a car that can run 2.8 in 0-60 and high 10's in the quarter, stock, it's much more than one would expect of such a high performance vehicle. As for a quieter cabin, for the same 2014 GT-R I had an after market company install Hushmat inside the cabin as well as the roof, roof panel, and trunk. So what I'm really looking for is a 2013 GT-R, preferably a Black Edition, and probably one that has had been tastefully, and safely, modded. I'd like to see what the R36 brings, but I'm afraid it will be priced way out of my budget for a toy, at least brand new.

Agreed, that's why I posted my previous experience in selling a modded, FBO GT-R. Once I took the performance parts off and had it retuned to stock, I was able to most of the money back that I spent on the parts. Now as for my S4, since it only has a pulley upgrade and engine and DSG tune, along with resonated downpipes, AWE exhaust, and intakes, that's not too extensive in the way of mods. And some potential buyers may want an S4 that has already been modded to Stage II, by a known and reputable tuner (Induktion Motorsports). If I find that most people would prefer to buy the vehicle bone stock, I'll return it to stock and sell the aftermarket parts a la carte. But there's always a buyer who wants a high performance car already tastefully modded, and I'm one of those people.

Can I just see a pic of the car? I have an Ice Silver S4 and am not going to buy yours, but I love Sepang and would love to see what it looks like lol. I found my car local privately and it was everything I wanted, EXCEPT the color...

Is it me or do the 102mm tips look bigger with the stock valence?

I don't know if that was in reference to my photos, but I have a carbon fiber rear valance. The 102mm black diamond tips definitely are bigger than stock, and that's a good thing.

Wow, I could actually sell my 2015 S4 and make a profit, or trade it in for a small loss. The only question is what to buy next

I know... I have them... But looking at your pics and looking at my car they seem more noticeable on the stock rear valence in my car.

Yea that's understandable. Thanks...it was on MT dr's and a decently prepped track (test&tune). You should have kept the whale since there werent too many built. I 100% agree, the second gen sedan is king!

Perhaps because of the gray in the stock rear valance. The CF rear valance has to be seen in bright sunlight to be appreciated.

You are right... It probably is the contrast on the gray

**BDP** · 04-05-2016 11:15 AM

This car is right up my alley, just out of my price range. Good luck getting it sold, it shouldn't last long.

I've already been contacted by several people for the aftermarket parts, so I don't think I'll have any problems selling them off. So right now it will just come down to how much I'd be able to sell my '15 S4 Prestige stock for. Just went over 11K miles. If any of you guys or girls are serious buyers and want to through some reasonable offers my way, that's fine. I don't have to sell, but I'm thinking of selling, so please, no hard luck stories or low ball offers.
