Former SEMA Quattro Tribute S4 Steals the Show on the Road

2013 Audi S4

Built by Allroad Outfitters for SEMA 2018, 2013 S4 wears livery made famous by S1 Quattro, used in promos by Thule, Toyo Tires.

SEMA is only a few months away (we hope). This means the desert sands of Las Vegas will soon be swarmed by all sorts of wild Audi builds. Some builds were made to promote a vendor’s product, others to display the skills of the builders themselves. Not to mention the coolest Audis flexing all over Sin City, from the drag strip and drift courses, to Las Vegas Motor Speedway and the Vegas Strip.

One such Audi made the trek to SEMA back in 2018, an S4 built by California’s Allroad Outfitters. Last year, it was put up on Craigslist. This year, it’s Bring a Trailer‘s turn to find this unique build a new home.

Hosted by aftermarket lighting vendor Spyder at their SEMA 2018 display, the S4 wears the colors made famous by the S1 Quattro of the Eighties. Other accolades include a Toyo Treadpass Treadpass Vehicle award, and time spent as a demo for Thule’s luggage racks. Since then, it’s been looking for a new home.

Under the hood, the S4’s 3.0-liter V6 with Eaton supercharger smokes the full set of Toyo Proxes R888Rs, each wrapped upon a Volk Rays TE37 wheel. A seven-speed auto handles the power, while the Borla exhaust delivers the sound to the SEMA crowd.

Though the interior remains stock in some places, the S4 received a bolt-in roll bar, plus a set of carbon-Kevlar Recaros up front. The outside, however, is where it’s at. Along with the aforementioned tribute wrap, the Audi rocks a full set of carbon-fiber body panels. From the canards and big wing, to the fender flares mirror covers, this ride can only be a SEMA special.

According to the Craigslist posting Jalopnik screencap’d in 2020, Allroad Outfitters tried to sell the SEMA S4 for $59,995. Alas, no one took them up on on this Audi. Thus, a trip to Bring a Trailer. As of this post, the S4 sits at $10,000. We wish the builders all the best in sending their creation off to a new home.
