The Audi 80, 90, and 4000 represent a transformative era for Audi, spanning the B2, B3, and B4 platforms from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s. The 4000 was the North American name for the B2 80, while the 90 served as a more luxurious, 5-cylinder version of the 80. These models were instrumental in building Audi's premium identity, especially after the introduction of the revolutionary quattro all-wheel-drive system.

Collectors seek out these cars for their connection to Audi's rally heritage and the unique character of the inline 5-cylinder engine. The B2 4000S quattro is significant as one of the first mainstream sedans with the system, while the later B3 Audi 90 quattro 20V is prized for its high-revving DOHC 5-cylinder. The clean, minimalist design language of the era has aged well, and the cars offer a direct, analog driving experience that's hard to find in modern vehicles.

Buying Tips

  • Check for rust in the rocker panels, floor pans, and around the front and rear glass, particularly on pre-galvanized B2 models.
  • The 5-cylinder engine is durable, but check for oil leaks at the valve cover and cam seals. CIS fuel injection systems can be troublesome if neglected.
  • On quattro models, listen for binding or groaning from the driveline during slow, tight turns, which can indicate issues with the center or rear locking differentials.
  • Inspect the interior for a sagging headliner, cracked dashboards, and worn seat bolsters, which are all common issues.
  • Test all electronics and the vacuum-operated central locking system, as both are frequent points of failure.
