Market Find: 2021 Audi exclusive Merlin Purple Q3
Will·
The world of Tailored Driver never ceases to amaze. Just two weeks ago we featured a 2020 Audi Q3 in Audi exclusive Merlin Purple, and we waxed poetic about how uncommon it is to see a Q3 in a custom-order hue. Guess we’re eating crow here, as another Q3 in the very same Merlin Purple has been spotted in Texas.
Market Find: 2021 Audi exclusive Arrow Grey R8
Will·
The Audi R8 has been heralded as an everyday supercar since inception, and having spent quite a bit of time living with both generations, we'd have to agree. Admittedly a bit flashier choice than say, a 911, this particular R8 is still what we consider a fairly understated spec.
EU Market Find: Nogaro Blue Audi S2 Avant?
Wait, it’s a low mileage Nogaro Blue S2 Avant and it’s an “Acquired Taste” car? What gives. Okay, yes, it’s perfect spec color choice and modifications that are there appear to be tasteful, but if our translation tool is reading that ad correctly, it’s a color change to Nogaro Blue from the original color listed as Burnt Orange for which the seller states and Apple translated “according to Audi only three vehicles in the color were delivered”.
Market Find: 2015 Porsche Cayenne S e-Hybrid in Peridot Metallic

One of the best parts of Tailored Driver population is the deep research required on the more obscure finds and referrals sent to us by our dedicated readership. While newer and more common are admittedly fairly easy to decipher, the older stuff that excites us can also frustrate. Case in point is this Tailored Driver, a 2015 Porsche Cayenne S e-Hyrbid found on Facebook Marketplace.
Market Find: Former Michael Schumacher Ferrari F355 GTS
F1 aficionados will tell you that Michael Schumacher left Benetton where he'd just logged his second (in a row) of seven career championships, relocating to a struggling Scuderia Ferrari in 1996. No doubt Maranello was ecstatic to have him, which is the timeframe that the very special F355 GTS you see here was produced.
Singer North Salem Commission Built to Classic Formula
Singer Vehicle Design has shared their latest reimagined Porsche 911, and it’s built to the firm’s now-sold-out and original Classic formula. Dubbed the “North Salem Commission”, this coupe features and understated specification for a more quintessentially classic appearance.
Market Find: 2000 BMW Individual Dakar Yellow 323ti
Will·
For enthusiasts in the US, there’s often the opinion that while maybe we got a version, Europe ‘got the good one.’ While perhaps not the best representation of this sentiment, this Tailored Driver fits squarely into that category- bigger motor than was offered stateside, paired with a BMW Individual color.
Market Find: 2024 Porsche Paint to Sample Aetna Blue 718 Cayman GT4 RS
Will·
A true classic that made it’s debut on Porsche’s 356, Aetna Blue (or Etna Blue) is equal parts pastel and vibrant. Decidedly darker than Gulf Blue, Etna gives Tailors the opportunity to achieve a result that stands out in a tasteful way while still inspiring conversation.
Market Find: 2021 Audi exclusive Balloon White Pearl RS 7 sportback
Will·
We've always loved the 'LEGO' nature of Volkswagen Group vehicles, which has allowed for some wildly inventive and impactful OEM+ upgrades on platform share vehicles over the years. With a catalog of hits as deep as theirs, it can also extend to colors as well, which is exactly what we're presenting in this Tailored Driver.
