EU Market Find: Nogaro Edition Audi ur quattro in Switzerland
Despite evidence you may see here suggesting otherwise, Nogaro Blue as a paint color didn’t show up at Audi until the RS2 era. If you’re doing the math, that’s about a decade before this 1983 Audi quattro left the factory. Yet here it sits.
So how’d it happen? Auto Bordin, the Swiss dealer listing this car tells the story fairly comprehensively, and so we’re going to post the English translation below.
EU Market Find: Rare Blue Chiaro Ferrari Mondial with Red Carpets
If there’s a bargain Ferrari nowadays then maybe that’s the Mondial. It may not feature the unique Bertone design or the romance of the Dino GT4, but it’s got a similar 2+2 configuration that will allow you to drive around with some of your shorter friends.
Market Find: “1 of 1” Citrus Yellow Audi RS 5 in Jacksonville
The dealer listing for this car suggests the car is one of one. While we've not been able to confirm that claim, we do know that Citrus Yellow is not as common in Audi exclusive parlance as say a Vegas Yellow or an Imola Yellow.
Market Find: Paint to Sample Albert Blue Porsche 911 GT3 RS in San Luis Obispo
Paint to Sample Albert Blue is an interesting color choice for a 911 GT3 RS - a color from Porsche's rich heritage that's somewhat subdued for such an in-your-face car as a GT3 RS. Pair it with red graphics though (not to mention carbon fiber laden Weissach Package) and the overall look becomes decidedly more bold.
Market Find: Audi SQ5 in Porsche Mahogany Metallic
It may be subtle, but this Audi SQ5 represents a double dose of rare decisions in the tailored ordering segment. First, going with a subtle color like Brown takes an extra commitment to the decision given the extra money to go with special paint may be lost on many who see the car. Second, going across brand borders into the palette of another manufacturer, in this case Porsche, suggests even more commitment given that likely makes the special paint that much more of a financial commitment.
EU Market Find: Red on Red Porsche 959 Inventoried at Swiss Lamborghini Dealership
Alright, this one's a bit of a mystery. A semi-thorough Googling searching this car doesn't reveal any details while the Lamborghini dealership that has it in inventory also offers no online description. Perhaps by the time you read this they will have provided us some details. If you're reading this and no further details are offered though, that means we were unable to learn more about this highly unusual Porsche 959 as of this time.
