(Classifieds broken) for sale: 2007 Avus Silver RS4 59k miles, $33,995

[AvusPdx]

Mods, please move this thread, the classified section is not allowing me to post on there (I know you are aware of the problem).

I am making a tough decision and selling my RS4 to get a B8.5 S4 or something newer for my family. Driving this car was a privilege and an honor to be part of the RS family. I hope to be back in the RS if the B9's do hit the shore, in Avant form.
This is a feeler ad, to see if there are interest in my car at the current market. Price is firm, and if the car doesn't sell, I will keep it.

59k miles on the odo (currently in Euro mode so in KM right now)
Avus Silver exterior/Black interior/CF inlays/Sunroof

OEM stock exhaust (will not fit in car if you want them)

Other notes:
The car has not been on a drag strip or a track. yet.
It has always been garage kept at my underground parking lot in my condo.
I have never had an issue with this car, other than tweaking with the LED lights and resistors. I gave up on those.
Most preventative maintenance has been completed.
I have an extra set of Hawk HP brake pads for F/R, was keeping these for track days. BNIB that will come with the car.
I love this car, and took the best care I can do. I'd say interior and exterior is at 9/10 (but you can be the judge of that).

Great looking car! Did you rebadge the RS4 on the trunk ?

[AvusPdx]

thanks guys. Yea its the Ebay black RS badge. I'm not too crazy on it since they are smaller than the OEM ones, but I can't do chrome anything..

Next car will be a B8.5 S4 in Ibis White or Black, or a S6. You guys have any other suggestions? Its very hard to find a next car after the RS4.
Possible alternatives:
B8.5 S4
C7 S6 (a tank)
A7 (a tank)
Focus RS
MK VII Golf R
B9 A4.. looks so mehhh
Merc C450 (if I can find one)
SQ5
S3 (too small imo)


Its very difficult to have multiple cars living in a condo, so I need a all around car.

S6

Focus RS, I watched the Top Gear episode that they did on "hot hatches" and that thing looks like a blast to drive. 350 HP and a top speed of 165 mph = loads of fun

Not a focus RS, I already had one and sold it - So glad I didn't sell my RS4 to get it, nothing wrong with the car but if you're expecting it to be anything like an RS4 you'll be sadly disappointed.

I would never expect anything out there to be like my rs4, that would be an unrealistic comparison.

I would tell you to go read the focus RS forums, where there is lots of kerfuffle about the cars poor performance, and lack of true AWD, what it really has is a fancy AWD traction control system, it still torque steers at power roll on, and behaves like a FWD car unless there is traction loss.

Audi's will always have their problems - they aren't known for their reliability but I almost, like --> <-- that close sold my RS4 (traded it) on my focus RS, I had the focus RS for less than a week and sold it, it was not awesome under normal driving situations, everyone says "yeah but on a track it's amazing"... and I can see that, the car is wickedly neutral and balanced, and it has fantastic turn in and predictable limits, but the other 99.95% of my driving time is spent to and from an office or other mundane driving, and in that situation the car might as well be a focus ST.

SOLD.

95% going with the B8.5 S4 with all the options needed (sports diff/Alcantara black interior/MMI+) 19k on the odo. My only gripe is the color which is Ice Silver.. i will most likely wrap it satin white or Black Metallic. I like the silver contrast with the black and the silver RS4 grill mod. The mirror's pop as well, and I can finally rock silver wheels. If I go White, it will be Panda again.

Damn i didn't see your ad and now the cars sold. If the deal falls through let me know!

[cotmfk]

Congrats on the sale! Great looking car.

Don't go B8.5. It seems everyone who goes from RS4 to B8 is disappointed!

Try something completely different maybe?

M3? :)

Don't go B8.5. It seems everyone who goes from RS4 to B8 is disappointed!

I have both now and my B8.5 S4 is my weekday daily driver. Always looking forward to the weekends when I can drive my RS4 again. I am the original owner and I have yet to find a car that can replace it.

[AvusPdx]

thanks guys. Its going to another Audi enthusiast in San Fran, I'm sure he'll chime in here next week.

[Kruat]

Damn i wish you were selling this in about a year...i would have jumped all over it. Need to buy another house before i get my rs4...says wife...lol
