The 2019, 2018, and 2023 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Should I buy a used Audi S4 now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2023 model is at −8.16% versus a year ago, and the 2019 model is at −1.03%.
• Deal availability: The 2023 model has 37.1% good and great deals, and the 2019 model has 30.9%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2019 model has the most listings at a current average price of $30,162.

If you're buying used today, the 2019 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the newest version, it may be worth waiting for 2026 inventory to mature.
