2001.5 Nogaro Blue S4 with 68K miles - Value?

[lances4]

Wanted to get some feedback from the enthusiasts on what I should value my car at given its rarity, condition, and low mileage - this may very well be one of the lowest mileaged B5 S4s in the country.
Nogaro Blue, black leather interior
68K miles
NEVER in an accident, runs perfect
I am the second owner bought it at 12K miles. DVs changed out years ago, all maintenance records, mostly done by Audi dealer

Mostly stock engine: - I put in an APR chip long ago, but dont have it turned on (to improve gas mileage/longevity). INterior It has a, aftermarket pioneer radio as i wanted bluetooth and the old stock one stopped playing CDs.
Has a 12" subwoofer and Alpine Amp.

Clear film on front of hood to prevent paint damage.

Paint is excellent (always garaged), minor scrape on passenger side rear door.
A few maintenance needs I might fix prior tor likely sell as is: passenger side window and rear driver side window do not roll down.

Basically I am a travelling consultant who works out of state, and for years this mainly has sat idle in my garage. Entertaining the idea of a sale but blue book value would be shit, whearas this is top notch for the right person to appreciate. Its pretty much a collectors car at this point. ;-)

6 speed.

Going to be a lot of picture requests for this one!

Shoot for $16-18k? Not an expert with price points on this platform by any means. Would be a good BaT auction in the event nobody on here wants it

Couple examples:

My 2001 Silver 6-speed with 90K miles is going live on BaT with no reserve in a couple days with similar condition and history. That should give you a good price point.

[lances4]

Perfect. Birdman, send the link once posted! I have only now learned of this BaT site recently. Its been a while since I bought and sold a car. Apparently it is the new platform! The preferred place now...over Ebay? I wlll need to look into it.

Beware of the tirekickers that'll tell you your car is worth $5.

Would say you'll get a good $ number given mileage, unmolested and depending on condition. Seems like car color is starting to have more influence as well.

I would guess 13-15k. A couple or reasons being maintenance, age, and availability of other cars. These cars were a great buy a few years ago at 5-7k for decent examples. If you start getting up near 15-20k, that enters a realm of different animals from M3's to B8 S4's. Someone likely would not and should not buy this car to daily. The car is also 15+ years old and with its low miles, and limited driving, we are talking about a lot of maintenance items that need addressing strictly based on age. I would say offer it for 18k, expect 15k and have a number you would settle for. However, if you want the most possible, try listing on rennlist. A lot of guys over there would appreciate the car for what it is.

Thanks gentlemen, this is all very helpful! Yes, I want a buyer who appreciates it for what it is no matter what the price it may fetch. This was my dream car YEARS before I ever got one. Funny story is I was driving a 98' heavily modded out M3 and very much into the car community. Loved Audi's. The comical part was the moment I finally got my dream car (this one - an amazing find as it was at the time) I simultaneously got shacked up with girl, popped out a few kids, and got a job that took all that out of me almost overnight. Suddenly a 3 stage and dropping $6K into upgraded turbos, which was a not even a questionable upgrade prior, no longer became a priority. So my dream car became a method to go to safeway ahahha. Many of you guys will know what i mean. ;-)

Haha our stories are very similar! Except I had a '97 M3, ended up with a Nogaro S4 but did take the plunge but now I just get to Safeway a little faster than I used too but still far less frequently than I'd like too.

$8-10k most.

You would do best to try BAT. Watch the bid above, but we all know that values are higher for Avants and built sedans (if you look at prior BAT auctions). Keep in mind that this is only for well sorted models, as a recent Imola Avant did not meet reserve and did not break 9k. That is why IMHO BAT will usually bring a premium price because those cars are usually better specimens that BAT bidders will pay for (that will not be realized in craigslist or forums).

Thanks, yeah I thought those applied to for sale, right now it was just a feeler. And on that note, I need to put a bit of money into her before its ready to sell. I have a few mechanical issues to address to make her perfect. The rear window does not roll down and the sunroof no longer operates. Super random, and since i never use it I have no idea how long that has not worked. Same with rear window. I never use it so totally forgot about this issue. Thanks all for the feedback.

a stock silver/silver sedan just sold on BAT for almost 9k with 91k miles. Definitely a lot more than that if all issues have been addressed and the car is near flawless.

Which is why I put a question mark. So people could give the man some advice (maybe those who have owned 5 B5s! Lol)
