Market Find: 2004 BMW Individual Estoril Blue Metallic M3 Coupe
Will·
While not offered on the E46 generation M3, BMW Individual Estoril Blue was such a hit on other M cars of the day that more than a few Tailors opted to tick the box. It is much less common though, that those same Tailors continued down the path of Individual in selecting an off-menu interior as we see here.
Market Find: 2010 Audi exclusive Solar Orange S4 Sedan
Will·
Incredibly rare early Audi exclusive build in Solar Orange with impossibly uncommon Tuscan Brown two-tone seats, low miles and a 6 speed manual transmission... what's not to love? Found on Cars and Bids, this Tailored Driver represents an easy (and maybe cheap!) way of getting into something unique while not suffering the parts availability issues that come with proper rarity.

Market Find: White on White Homologation Special Audi Sport quattro
Whether this car qualifies to be highlighted on this site is perhaps debatable. On the positive side, it's one of only 164 road variants of the homologation special Audi Sport quattro ever built. That definitely makes it a limited production vehicle much like the Ferrari F40, yet it's a repaint (originally red) with a standard color (Alpine White), making it not factory original. Also, it's got a non-factory interior, so there's that.

Market Find: 2016 BMW Individual Frozen Black Metallic M6 Coupe
Will·
To quote Cars and Bids founder Doug Demuro, now THIS is cool! A Tailored Driver that’s just as spec-rare as it is production rare, this BMW Individual Frozen Black M6 coupe is one of just 23 total LCI models to be optioned with a 6 speed manual, and one of 68 to feature it throughout the model’s 5 year run. As an added bonus, this M6 was also optioned with a BMW Individual Opal White interior.
Market Find: 2013 Audi exclusive Papaya Orange Q5 hyrbid
Will·
Those memes about sending each other Facebook Marketplace listings of equal parts poor and awesome decisions at 1AM? That’s this Tailored Driver in a nut shell. Entering our radar over the weekend, this Audi exclusive Papaya Orange Q5 hybrid is the kind of thing fever dreams are made of- super rare color, weird options (tan interior and no sunroof?), and ‘needs work’ giving little context to why the price is so low.
Market Find: 2019 VW Golf R Spektrum in Irish Green
Beyond special or limited edition models, Volkswagen hasn't had its own in-house tailoring department. However, in 2019, then Golf product planner Megan Closset decided to take matters into her own hands. VW of America was never going to set up a program like Audi has with Audi exclusive, but by doing a very limited run of a large spectrum of colors she could effectively do the same thing. So, that run was made ergo "Spektrum", and those cars showed up at dealers with enthusiasts seeking them out like a Hot Wheels Treasuer Hunt.
Color Focus: Porsche Guards Red – Y39
Guards Red (a.k.a. "India Red") is maybe the most Porsche of Porsche colors. No, it's not a quirky shade nor has it got "Signal" in the name, but it is perhaps the most ubiquitous. It seems like half the Porsches delivered in the 1980s could have been Guards Red, a time when it was not uncommon for owners of less desirably colored Porsches to respray their non-red Porsche to fit in.
