Market Find: Audi exclusive Imola Yellow S6 sedan
Will·
Imola Yellow isn't exactly a hue for the introverted, and by choosing a big, bright, non-metallic Yellow, we are certain the original Tailor of this S6 didn't mind standing out. The C7-generation S6 is an absolute ground pounder out of the box, and when not yellow, it blends into highway traffic quite well- so well that one was used to set a Cannonball record.

Market Find: 2018 BMW Individual Frozen Dark Blue II M3 CS
Will·
BMW Individual Frozen Dark Blue II might look familiar to fans of the F80-generation BMW M3 CS, and that’s because it is.
