Audi’s S4 has great history with Nogaro Blue. Audi’s bold answer to classic French Blue was a launch color on the first B5 S4, again on the B6 S4 and was offered as special edition in the B8 S4 era. Readers of this site probably also know it was a color born with the iconic Porsche-developed Audi RS2 Avant. As a result, Audi aficionados tend to seek out Nogaro Blue cars. This makes a Nogaro Blue S4 a very sweet thing indeed.

The car in question just popped up listed by the owner on Audi Club North America’s Classifieds group. It’s had a few modifications, though these appear to be minor and limited to cosmetic changes including custom blue Alcantara on the door panels and on the shift knob in order to mimic earlier versions of the car.

This S4 is also shown on RS 5 wheels, which is the reason for the price spread above. Sold on stock wheels, it can be had for $40,000 according to the ad, or $41,500 if you want the RS 5 wheels along with it.

These aren’t the only modifications, so if you prefer an unmodified car you’ll want to look closely and check in with the owner about also procuring the original parts where they are still available.

Despite evidence you may see here suggesting otherwise, Nogaro Blue as a paint color didn’t show up at Audi until the RS2 era. If you’re doing the math, that’s about a decade before this 1983 Audi quattro left the factory. Yet here it sits.
So how’d it happen? Auto Bordin, the Swiss dealer listing this car tells the story fairly comprehensively, and so we’re going to post the English translation below.
