The 1984 Audi Sport Quattro is worth over half a million euros.

Audi Sport quattro de 1984 vale mais de meio milhão de euros

Audi Sport started production of the quattro for rallying simultaneously with the quattro series, launched in the European market in March 1980. It went down in history as one of the most iconic models of the four-ring brand, responsible for introducing the all-wheel drive system in road vehicles and pioneering the current range of Audi Sport sports cars.

It is estimated that 224 units were produced, of which only 164 were homologated for public road use. The production version had a 320 mm shorter wheelbase than the competition car, which, combined with a fiberglass and carbon/kevlar body construction, allowed for a weight reduction of over 300 kg. The inline 5-cylinder engine delivered 306 hp of power and 350 Nm of torque.

The car in the images is one of the best-preserved ones we have seen at auction, with only 8800 kilometers driven since it left the factory forty years ago. Interestingly, this white-painted Audi Sport quattro was part of a very small group of cars that were transported to Japan and belonged to collector Yoshikuni Okamoto. Later, the model was sold to a former rally driver in the USA, where it remains to this day. It will be auctioned on January 25th during the event held by RM Sotheby’s in Arizona. The estimated value ranges between €550,000 and €650,000.
