Marque analyst note

The Audi Sport Quattro remains effectively absent from tracked US market transactions, with zero sales recorded over the past 12 months and no active listings currently monitored. This absence of price discovery reflects the extreme rarity and regional concentration of the model—only 224 were produced worldwide—rather than any decline in collector interest.

The Sport Quattro holds the highest collectibility classification as a Holy Grail asset, a status earned through its significance as the first production four-wheel-drive competition car and its role as progenitor of Audi's rally dynasty. Its desirability ranking as "low" in the data likely reflects market scarcity rather than appeal, since confirmed transactions when they do occur command premium prices reflective of its historic importance and irreplaceable status.

The illiquid classification is structural rather than cyclical. With fewer than 225 examples in existence globally and virtually none entering the US market in any given year, finding a willing seller or buyer at any price point requires patience and network. This car trades in a closed ecosystem of serious marque historians and European collector networks rather than through conventional channels.

Without recent transaction data, price trends and forward projections cannot be reliably established. Holders of Sport Quattros tend to be long-term custodians rather than active traders, meaning transaction frequency will remain episodic and data points sparse. Any future sale would likely set its own precedent based on condition, provenance, and the specific buyer's valuation of this irreplaceable piece of automotive history.
