3700-Mile 2008 Audi S4 Avant on Bring a Trailer
What's happening
A pristine 2008 Audi S4 Avant with only 3,700 miles on the odometer is being auctioned on Bring a Trailer. The wagon is equipped with a V-8 engine and manual transmission—a increasingly rare combination in the modern automotive market.
Who's involved
Bring a Trailer is an online auction platform specializing in collector and enthusiast vehicles. Audi, the German luxury automaker, produced the S4 Avant as a high-performance wagon variant during the mid-2000s.
Why it matters
Manual transmissions have become nearly extinct in performance vehicles, making this example particularly valuable to driving enthusiasts. Ultra-low mileage collector cars like this one often command premium prices as preserved examples of automotive history.
More context
The 2008 S4 Avant represents the B7 generation, which featured a 4.2-liter naturally-aspirated V-8 producing 350 horsepower. Audi discontinued the manual transmission option in the S4 lineup after the 2009 model year, transitioning to dual-clutch automatics. This generation of S4 has become increasingly sought-after by collectors who value naturally-aspirated engines and traditional transmissions. The combination of low mileage, proper specification, and wagon body style makes this particular example exceptionally rare in the used market.
