2016 Audi S6 Prestige Sepang Blue

**amelen** · 11-22-2016 08:41 AM

I'm considering trading in the S6 for a 911 cab so posting the S6 up if anyone is interested. 17k miles on the car. Original MSRP is $82k.

Garage kept at home & work. Used for my daily commute, no mods, race tracks or anything like that. No accidents, scratches or any damage. The back seats have never even been used.

4/4/2018 Update - New price is $55k.

2016 S6 Sepang Blue w/ Lunar Silver and Layered Aluminum/Black Wood / Prestige / Black Optics / Sports.

Thank you! I've really enjoyed it and have already kept it longer than any of my other recent cars.

Thank you! I've been offered low to mid 60's from the dealerships, so looking for $67,500 or so for a private sale.

If you get low to mid 60's from a dealer for a trade-in, you will save ~$4,000 to $4,500 in tax on your new ride. So looking for $67,500 from a private sale may actually leave you with less money in your pocket.

Yes, but then I'm stuck with buying from a local dealer :) If I sell privately, I have more flexibility on who to buy from. I'm looking for a specifically speced 911, which isn't readily available in the local inventory right now.

One of my favorite color combos. GLWS!

Awesome looking car! Your car is the ying to my yang in terms of color.

**14S4GWM** · 11-24-2016 05:50 PM

Very nice, would love to have it but just not in the cards right now.

**papadoc** · 11-24-2016 11:04 PM

Picked up a similar car with a few more options, but love the Sepang Blue. Added this to the RS6 in the stable. I thought this the best color for the S6 with Black Optics. GLWS!

Thanks guys!

Attaching an AutoCheck Vehicle History Report (all clean + 1 year buyback protection). Also, a full 15,000mi service was performed by Town Audi a few months back.

Bump. Not in any rush, but still thinking about selling (have my eye on a 911). At 28k miles now, just replaced all tires.

**Audi_4_L1FE** · 03-25-2018 08:48 AM

WOW... talk about an old post surfacing again! GLWS, two fav colors for S6 White - Blue

**amelen** · 03-25-2018 09:08 AM

It was easier than re-posting. Thank you! It was my favorite combo too (I custom ordered it this way). And the white has been surprisingly easy to keep clean (which was my original concern).

God that interior color is to die for

Hasn't been bad to maintain either - people were telling me it was terrible with jeans, but that's all I wear and have had 0 issues.

**parkstr8** · 04-04-2018 07:42 PM

I have been thinking of selling mine as well...loaded like yours plus EPL, AK, ECS Sways, blah blah and wrapped...as I found a '17 S8 Plus with like 3k miles that I want badly!!! GLWS!

If you're dealing with an Audi dealership, they should be able to give you decent trade-in's. Especially with the new S6 not out yet and the rumors that it will lose the V8. I got very good trade-in values here in NJ and especially when counting the tax savings. The problem is I'm looking for a specific 911 combo, which means dealing with a P-dealership (which will just send my S6 to wholesale), and I'm often looking at cars out of state.

Nice car, love the color combo....Im looking at a 13 S6 for 37K, but this is tempting....

My car or not, definitely pay extra for the C7.5 (2016+). I really didn't like the C7, but love my C7.5, the difference was pretty big for me personally. New in C7.5 (from memory):

- Revised transmission
- Revised engine (more HP)
- Fixed gear snifter (the C7 one is horrible)
- Sports package (mostly the sports exhaust)
- Black Optics package
- Newer MMI GPU (now nvidia based)

Appreciate the info Alex!

Damn. If only I saw this a couple months ago. Got a black 16 with 34k for 50, but wanted basically yours exactly... only bonus was the audi care for the next 2services and a set of winter wheels and tires

Sepang blue or bust! had to wait 4mo for a custom order on the Sepang, for some reason the dealerships stock them only in white/black. Sepang is such a great color though and such a low premium (compared to Porsche color costs).

**F80Dreamer** · 04-07-2018 07:49 PM

That car is stunning, GLWS!

Sepang premium price is the exact same as black. Which is a no brainer, it’s a beautiful color. Wish they stocked them more often.

GLWS, beautiful car.

Tell me about it. I worked at Town when your car came in. It's the reason why I got Sepang for myself. Took some searching but I swapped it in for myself.
