Even in the rare air of D-segment German luxury sedans, the Audi S8 tends to garner an extra level of respect as a performance legend thanks to its one-time association with the movie Ronin. Now throw in a special color with deep heritage like Porsche’s Brewster Green and pair that with always handsome Cognac leather interior and you have something very special.
Based on the reaction to this car's post on the BMW Individual Market & Discussion group on Facebook, Yas Marina Blue is a surprisingly polarizing color. Even still, it's got strong BMW heritage having been a factory option color for the F80-generation BMW M3, and like the M2's Zandvoort Blue, it was stylistically intended to hark the Bavarian blue tone in the trim-colore rhombus design of the BMW Motorsport M badge. Frankly, we're fans, but it seems opinions are definitely split.
Every once in a while, a limited or special edition model comes to market that shows just how much attention to detail a brand's product planning department gets it. The MY2022 TT RS Heritage Edition was one of those cars. Audi built just 10 each of five different heritage colors, each with their own interior specification
With 2024 being the anniversary of the 911 Turbo, the amount of forced induction elfers coming onto the market this year has been astounding. Now throw in Oak Green Metallic paint, the same color Dr. Ferry Porsche painted his personal 911 Turbo, and you already have a winner before we get to the fact that this is an early Turbo built by then fledgling RUF Automobile of Pfaffenhausen, Germany.
In 2014, Porsche celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the 911 with a special "50th Anniversary Edition" model that utilized the then-wider body of the 991. 1963 were built to this specification, most easily recognizable for their Fuchs style wheels, houndstooth seats, and only available in either darker Graphite Grey (graphitgrau; non-metallic UNI; C2C2; Porsche) or lighter Geyser Grey. And while all of those had the base 911 drivetrain, Porsche also specially built a Graphite Grey Turbo S 50th Anniversary Edition for none other than Jerry Seinfeld. That car is currently up for sale on Bring a Trailer.
