Color Focus: Mercedes-Benz MANUFAKTUR Vintage Blue – LU-934

Tailored Driver·
It may say "Vintage" in the name, but MANUFAKTUR Vintage UNI (vintagblau; UNI; LU-934; Mercedes-Benz) is technically modern. Yes, it seems to hark visions of powder blue W115 or W123 E-Classes of the 60s and 70s... or maybe Gulf Blue racing liveries, but it's decidedly different and decidedly modern. Mercedes-Benz rolled out this blue uni color as one of the colors in the palette of its modern era MANUFAKTUR tailoring service, offering a very unique look that's both timeless and throwback.

Color Focus: Porsche Oak Green Metallic Neo – M6E

Tailored Driver·
A modern reformulation of a classic color, Oak Green Metallic Neo (oakgrünneo; metallic; M6E; Porsche) harks Porsche's Oak Green Metallic of the 80s and 90s that was offered in that period as a standard though remained rare. Today's reformulation, thus the "Neo" in Porsche parlance, appears to be close but not exact. It was a standard launch color for the Porsche Macan Electric and the launch photo spec for the 992.2 GT3 Touring, so not widely seen in person at the time of this writing. Those familiar with the original who have seen it in person report it has a bit less gold tones and metallic flake than the original.
