Seeking more than the sea of monotone in today’s automotive landscape? So are we. Tailored Driver exists just beyond the intersection of obsessive and compulsive, for those who see the brochure as merely a starting point, and have the drive to execute their dreams.
This website is for those who believe the automobile is so much more than mere transportation appliance. It is for those who see their automobile as an extension of themselves and a conduit for self expression no matter what level of the automotive spectrum they inhabit.
Once you open the pandora’s box of automotive tailoring, you’ll see there is a veritable universe of brands and companies offering everything from special editions, special paint or trim, to bespoke one-of-one creations.
We believe this is a long underserved niche in the automotive space. Countless aficionados on platforms such as Instagram have done an incredible job communicating special builds in a sharable way. However, those platforms are vast and unreliable at communicating happenings in the space. With the TailoredDriver.com website, we aim to provide a home for those as fixated on unique and bespoke automobiles as much as we are.
About the Tailored Driver Blog
The main focus for our content feed then are the factory tailors such as Ad Personal by Lamborghini, Audi exclusive, Atelier Ferrari, BMW Individual, Fuoriserie by Maserati, MANUFAKTUR by Mercedes, Porsche Exclusiv Manufaktur, Q by Aston Martin, McLaren Special Operations, Mulliner by Bentley, Special Vehicle Operations for Jaguar and Land Rover. Limited production special editions will also be catalogued here. As time goes on, we’ll include whatever other personalization programs pop up from additional brands or carrozzeria such as Pininfarina, ItalDesign, Touring Superleggera and Zagato.
We’ll also have several underlying themes in what we cover. Beyond news, events coverage and features on tailored builds, there’s also a focus on tailored finds within the market at all price ranges. Wherever possible, we’ll log key piece of information such as VIN and color or color code within the story in order to better track these cars or be inspired when you’re searching inspiration for that perfect color or just what sort of tailored car you can afford.
Finally, we’ll also focus on what we’ve come to call the “remasters” be they design houses or builders. The term and scope of the “aftermarket” is a bit too broad, so we’ll focus on companies who have formulaically reimagined automobiles and allow clients to commission a tailored automobile in much the same way as the factory themselves.
