We’ve got a lot of questions about this A6. The most obvious of which is simply.. why? This Premium Plus was ordered in Audi exclusive Samoa Orange to a dealer in Massachusetts, where we are sure it stood out. To be honest- we’re big fans of Samoa and if this was an S6 with black optic, we’d be genuinely tempted. We’re just not sure it works on the A6 seen here. Regardless, this twice-hit Samoa is without question a 1 of 1 registered stateside, and could be your oddball entry into Tailored Driver status.

Color Focus: Audi Samoa Orange Metallic – X2U

Believed to be used initially as a launch color for the R8 GT, Samoa Orange Metallic (samoaorange; metallic UNI; X2U; Audi) embraced Audi’s heritage for earth tones in the late 2000s, a time that also birthed Ipanema Brown and Teak Brown. This fiery dark orange would later be used as more of a standard color when the first-generation R8 got its facelift, then later on the TT competition. It even shows up on an R8 Mk2 on screen as Tony Stark’s R8 Coupé in Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. As a result, Samoa Orange Metallic remains a popular choice in the extended Audi exclusive color palette.

Euro Market Find: Period Tuner 1977 Mercedes-Benz SL 280 in Cayenne Orange

While the third-generation Mercedes-Benz SL (C107) isn’t hasn’t proven as graceful at aging as the second-generation W113 Pagoda, it has come into its own as 80s cars begin to bask in the glow of Radwood and other Reagan era automotive celebration. Technically though, cars like this 1977 SL 280 pre-date the 80s/90s cut-off of an event like Radwood, but if you can talk your way through the entry line then we think you’d have a good chance at winning with a car like this example. Built by BB Tuning, Rainer Buchmann Frankfurt-based customization shop that built some of the wildest cars you might see, and with a heavy focus on Porsche and Mercedes-Benz.
