2025 AUDI S4 Premium Plus

The vehicle is listed as a 2025 Audi S4, but the provided NHTSA VIN decode identifies VIN WAUDGAFL1EA147818 as a 2014 Audi S4 sedan. This discrepancy should be resolved before purchase. The decode indicates all-wheel drive, a 2.995-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, manual transmission, Premium Plus trim, and German production. The auction record identifies the vehicle as “CERT OF SALVAGE > 75% DAMAGE” with “SIDE” listed as the primary damage. The visible evidence supports the side-damage classification: both left-side doors are severely crushed, with deep creases, torn and scraped surfaces, exposed inner areas, and deformed door frames. The lower left rocker panel and side sill are also heavily crushed and distorted, with displaced or separated rocker trim. The adjacent left front fender and left rear quarter panel show additional creasing, dents, deformation, and scraped paint. The left-side door glass is shattered, with glass fragments visible around the front and rear seating areas and inside the cabin. The left-side curtain and side airbags are deployed, and the driver’s frontal airbag has also deployed from the steering wheel. Additional glass debris and loose airbag-related material are visible on the driver’s seat, front cabin floor, rear seating area, and center-console area. A section of the lower front bumper trim or grille is missing on the lower right side, leaving an open recess. The rear bumper has lighter scuffing and surface scratches, and the hood has localized paint discoloration and chipped or peeling areas near the front center. The photos provide insufficient evidence to confirm the auction’s statement that total damage exceeds 75%. Given the severe damage to the doors, sill, and surrounding body structure, a thorough structural, restraint-system, glass, electrical, and mechanical inspection would be required before considering repair or purchase.
