This 2008 Audi RS 4 is finished in one of the most collectible colors in the Audi exclusive spectrum: Nogaro Blue. Special-ordered through the Audi exclusive program, it’s a subtle yet notable difference. By 2008, Sprint Blue had replaced Nogaro as Audi’s go-to bold blue for sport models. Over time though, Nogaro has been regularly revisited and remained a darling of enthusiasts while Sprint Blue has faded into obscurity.

Beyond its color, the RS 4 itself represents a turning point: the final iteration of the naturally aspirated 4.2 V8 in a US RS model when paired with a six-speed manual and Audi’s quattro drivetrain.

What makes this example especially compelling is its balance of rarity and usability. While it may not be a low-mileage pristine collection-grade specimen, the fact it carries the Nogaro paint and brings that V8 soundtrack with manual input makes it highly desirable. For someone looking for a driver’s RS 4 that stands out from the crowd without paying “zero-mile” collector premiums, this is precisely the sort of find we look for.
