Will·January 24, 2025

Generally speaking, life is cyclical and the world of Tailored Driver is no different. Like seasons, Tailored colors on the secondhand market seem to cluster and we’ll spot incredibly rare or interesting specs in twos and threes. Case in point is this Tailored Driver, a 2023 R8 V0 spyder in Audi exclusive Suzuka Grey Pearl Effect paired with exclusive Ocean Blue extended leather.

Market Find: 2019 Audi exclusive Solar Orange RS 5 Coupe

Will·January 23, 2025

How quickly we find our way back to Orange. Audi exclusive Solar Orange was chosen for this RS 5, with the added bonus of Audi exclusive deviated stitching in a matching Signal Orange found in the interior. In no doubt aided by the bold choice in color, this mega-sticker Tailored Driver is currently on offer at a Stellantis dealer for the seemingly low asking price of $45,991. If we had to guess, we’d say that’s likely half off its original asking price.

Market Find: 2016 Porsche Paint to Sample Gulf Orange Cayman GT4

Will·January 22, 2025

While Gulf Blue seems to get a ton of play due to its deep roots in Porsche's racing history, Paint to Sample Gulf Orange, shown here on a 2016 Porsche Cayman GT4, isn't so common. On the surface, it makes sense- the subtlety of Gulf Blue is not found here. But is a GT variant Porsche about blending in?

Market Find: 2022 Audi exclusive Oak Green Metallic SQ7

Will·January 20, 2025

At first, our minds played tricks on us. Audi of Richfield, Minnesota bills this Tailored Driver as "District Green Metallic", and we'll admit it had us briefly fooled. District is much darker, but in some lights it can pop so we assumed this was more a case of poor lighting and editing as opposed to mistaken identity. It made quite a bit of sense then, when friend of the site Topher actually confirmed this SQ7 as Oak Green.

EU Market Find: 1996 BMW Individual Madeira Violet Metallic 320i Convertible

Will·January 17, 2025

Differing ever so slightly from BMW's Techno Violet, BMW Individual Madeira Violet Metallic is a visually stunning purple that can really play visual tricks depending on conditions. In some lighting, it almost appears to be BMW's Cosmos Black due to the color's blue and purple metallic flake.

Market Find: 2018 Porsche Paint to Sample Graphite Blue Metallic Macan GTS

Will·January 17, 2025

A modern Porsche, in Paint to Sample Graphite Blue Metallic, for $32k. Say what you will, but that's a compelling statement. Graphite Blue Metallic was one of the more interesting standard colors from the 991 generation of Porsche's 911, appearing nearly Nardo Grey at first glance, but with just enough cyan to have a clear differentiation.

Market Find: 2023 Mercedes-Benz Manufaktur Desert Sand G63 4×4 Squared

Will·January 16, 2025

It's hard to explain exactly why, but beige in some instances is incredibly good. Long a metaphor for boring, beige and it's variants are having an absolute moment, whether it's Audi's Siam Beige and Mocha Latte, or the Mercedes-Benz Manufaktur Sand Beige seen here.

Market Find: 2022 Audi RS Q8 with Audi exclusive Ocean Blue Leather

Will·January 16, 2025

Sure, we love a good exterior but as they say- it's what's on the inside that counts. Audi's Glacier White paint is augmented by the frankly stunning Audi exclusive Ocean Blue leather interior on this Tailored Driver, resulting in a fairly stealth OEM build if not for the copper Avant Garde wheels.

Market Find: 2024 Porsche Paint to Sample Oak Green Metallic 718 Spyder RS

Will·January 16, 2025

We don't play favorites at Tailored Driver, but if we did, Porsche Oak Green Metallic would be a strong contender. A deeper shade than Aston's Racing Green, Oak Green features a gold metallic flake that genuinely pops in direct sunlight.
