Audi Puts Exclusive Le Mans Racing Cars Up For Sale
\
Every car has a story. Maybe it’s the one that took you on your first date or carried you across the country on an unforgettable road trip. But then there are cars that are the story. Machines that have burned their names into motorsport history, not just through miles driven, but through championships won, rivals defeated, and records shattered. For the first time ever, Audi Sport is giving a select few customers the chance to own a true racing legend. These are not tribute cars or museum pieces, but actual factory-built prototypes from the former factory racing programs.
More than just expensive souvenirs, the cars are meticulously rebuilt to meet strict standards, so they’ll hold up when you push them to the limit. Some of the original engineers are even lending a hand, making these cars a real slice of motorsport history. It’s like owning a piece of the past, expertly reassembled by the legends who helped create it.

Icons From The Frontlines Of Racing

First, the Audi R18 e-tron quattro – a name that sent chills down the spines of endurance racing competitors. Chassis 207 isn’t just any R18, though. It’s the very machine that carried Romain Dumas, Loïc Duval, and Marc Gené to victory at Spa-Francorchamps in 2012. A hybrid-diesel monster, it proved that Audi’s relentless pursuit of innovation could dominate one of the toughest endurance races in the world.
Then there’s the RS 5 DTM chassis 107 that Timo Scheider steered to a stunning victory at the 2015 DTM finale in Hockenheim. This car wasn’t built for comfort or the street. It was built to race, to win, and to embarrass anything that challenged it.
