Market Find: “Nimbus Green” Audi TT RS Final Edition
There’s a funny thing about the 2013 TT RS Final Edition. It was supposed to be Nimbus Grey, the same color that adorned the original Audi TTS concept and was a staple in the early years of the TT. As the folks at Audi prepared to sunset the Mk2 Audi TT RS, they planned a limited run of 30 cars in the same specification.
Market Find: Paint to Sample Oslo Blue Porsche 911 Sport Classic
Glass half empty, the exclusivity of the 992-generation Porsche 911 Sport Classic means that very few people had the opportunity to order one. Glass half full, this rarity also contributed to a high take rate for paint to sample services. In the case of this ultra low mileage example, that paint to sample color is 356-era Oslo Blue.

Market Find: TAG Turbo “AP87” in Mint Green as Broad Arrow Private Sale
One of the more fascinating and certainly the more storied in the Porsche 911 remastering game must certainly be Lanzante and their Porsche 911 TAG Turbos. After acquiring a bulk of former TAG Turbo F1 racing engines developed by Porsche for McLaren, the firm set about building a series of only eleven Porsche 911 Turbos fitted with them. In doing so, they created the ultimate tribute inspired by the one-off Porsche TAG Turbo test car built by Porsche's own R&D department.

Will·
Tailored Driver strives to be of the people and by the people. So while it'd be really easy to just post blank-check Porsche GT variants all day long, we'd rather dig in the proverbial crates for stuff you can actually attain.

Market Find: Audi exclusive Nimbus Grey e-tron GT
Will·
Audi’s e-tron GT is divisive amongst enthusiasts for one simple reason- it happens to be powered by electricity.

Arguably underappreciated in it's day, BMW's Laguna Seca Blue is a vivid pastel blue that has gained traction in the past decade to the point where it's not just a frequent Tailored Driver flyer via BMW Individual, it also comes with it's own surcharge when found on E46 M3s and later Z3 M coupes.

Will·
This Tailored Driver marks the second instance of Auratium Green to grace our pages, and frankly that's a shame. This pale pastel green has all the makings of a future classic, yet it's still as relevant on this 718 Spyder RS as it was on the 356 where it debuted.
