Market Find: New 2025 Audi exclusive A6 allroad Painted Nogaro Blue
Ever since it dropped as "RS Blue" on the original RS2, Nogaro Blue rose to legend status. Adding it to any Audi station wagon immediately amplifies appeal given the heritage, inspiring the building of countless Audi exclusive long roofs from mundane small displacement wagons to the most bruiser of RS cars.
Market Find: Porsche Paint to Sample Viola Metallic 718 Cayman GT4 with CXX Hounds Tooth Inserts
Will·
The 718 Cayman GT4 (and Boxster Spyder for that matter) are Tailored Driver favorites for a number of reasons, most of them fairly obvious- size, shape, power, etc. Further tugging on our heartstrings, this particular example is finished in the dark and moody Viola Metallic, paired with Carbon Fiber bucket seats that happen to feature CXX-tailored Hounds Tooth inserts.
Rare Fantasy Yellow ’61 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster Bound for RM Miami
Mercedes made big news at the 1957 Geneva Motor Show when it revealed the 300 SL Roadster as a replacement for the iconic 300 SL Coupe also known as the "Gullwing". Additional chassis reinforcement took weight up, though further improvements such as a fully synchronized gearbox, improved engine (dropping direct injection), rear axle design assured the newer and heavier Roadster remained one of the fastest accelerating cars available in those years.
Market Find: BMW Individual Speed Yellow M3 Competition
Will·
While historically Speed Yellow is a Porsche color, as we've proven before Stuttgart's finest hues tend to translate incredibly well to other German brand models. Shown here on an F80-generation M3 Competition with all the right boxes ticked- Carbon roof, Cloth seats, 6 Speed manual- and fairly low mileage, it's a compelling package.
Market Find: 2021 Porsche Paint to Sample Brewster Green 911 Carrera S
Will·
Porscheflation aside, this $149,992 992.1-generation 911 Carrera S has a lot going for it. Brewster Green is always a hit regardless of application, as are cloth-centered seats and three pedals. But what really does it for us on this particular Tailored Driver is the restraint shown on the build.
Market Find: Stateside E30 BMW Individual Daytona Violet 316 Touring
Given the E30 BMW 3-Series was never sold as a station wagon (a.k.a. Touring in BMW speak) in the United States, nor did it sell the 1.6-liter 316 version, this car would likely qualify for one of our European Market Watch finds... except it's already present in the U.S.A. according to Facebook Marketplace for Woodstock, Georgia.
Very Special Porsche 918 Weissach Spyder Headed to Sell with RM in Miami
Though White was a standard color for the Porsche 918 Spyder, it's clear that this particular example is far from "standard".
Market Find: Porsche Paint to Sample Venetian Blue Metallic 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet
Will·
This 997 is finished in Porsche's Venetian Blue Metallic, a medium blue-ish grey with deep roots in the G body era of 911s, which we simply do not see very often. Perhaps a byproduct of the G body's underappreciation until very recent times, we can't really blame any Tailors for simply overlooking Venetian- it's not the brightest, the most vibrant, and nor the most legendary of Porsche's secret menu.
Green-on-Green Porsche 959 SC by Canepa Slated for RM Miami
Reimagining any car to the exacting specification is an impressive thing, though beginning with one of 292 legendary Porsche 959s is a whole other level of commitment. That’s where Canepa comes in, with their reimagining of these Group B homologation specials into what they call a 959 SC (SC standing for Super Carrera).
EU Market Find: BMW Individual Velvet Blue Metallic 528i
Will·
Europe in the 90's, man. What a strange time. The kind of time, in fact, where a well-to-do professional would put down real money for a brand new 528i, opt for BMW Individual Velvet Blue Metallic (great!), and also check the box for whatever this two-tone blue and beige, umm, statement piece is.
