Market Find: 2023 Porsche Paint to Sample Irish Green Cayman GT4
Will·
We're massive fans of the Cayman GT4 here at Tailored Driver, so when a Paint to Sample'd VIN enters our radar it's impossible to not take notice. With this Market Find, we have the realization of a spec that's been kicked around our internal group chat for quite some time- Paint to Sample Irish Green, 6 speed manual transmission, Yellow deviated stitching, belts and door pulls, and because we're not as young as we once were, 18-way power seats.
Market Find: 2018 BMW Individual Nardo Grey M3 Competition
Will·
The staff of Tailored Driver loves a good cross-brand build, and this M3 is an incredibly well executed example. Aforementioned Nardo Grey (in BMW code P6K) is paired exquisitely with Amaro Brown extended leather, elevated by the appearance of BMW's Competition pack seats with strategic cutouts.
Market Find: 2013 BMW Individual Santorini Blue M3 Competition Package
Will·
On the Tailored Driver spectrum, there are simply so many variants of Blue that the best way to describe on is quite possibly to reference others. Case in point, BMW Individual Santorini Blue featured in this instance on an E92 M3, exists somewhere between BMW's Laguna Seca Blue and Porsche's Voodoo Blue.
Market Find: 2021 BMW Individual Isle of Man Green Metallic M5 Competition
Will·
Configure just about anything in BMW's current lineup in BMW Individual Isle of Man Green over Tartufo Full Merino leather and we're in. This M5 is a simply incredible spec, no edits needed- so with that in mind, we'll just let the pictures do the talking.
Market Find: Tizian Red Metallic Audi TT RS Heritage Edition
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
Market Find: 2014 Audi exclusive Teak Brown Metallic S4
Will·
We’re always interested in a one-of-one, and this Audi exclusive Teak Brown Metallic S4 is just that. A claimed sixteen S4s were painted in this hue, but just one was paired with the uber-rare two-tone Chestnut Brown interior. Moving beyond the uniqueness of this S4, we start to see where the initial Tailor of this driver perhaps missed a box or two.
Market Find: 2018 Porsche Paint to Sample Grey Black Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid
Will·
Chosen as the launch color for their instant classic 997.2 GT3 RS, Porsche's Grey Black exists at the crossroads of dynamic and drab. Simple enough in theory, Grey Black is impossibly deep in the right lighting, trending much lighter or darker depending on conditions. We personally find this application exceptionally interesting on the range topping Turbo S E-Hybrid, due to it's understated curb presence (minus the Acid Green painted brake calipers and E-Hybrid badging) while also packing a combined 680hp from its twin-turbo V8 gas and hybrid electric motors.
Market Find: 1978 RUF BTR in Oak Green Metallic
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.
Market Find: Jerry Seinfeld’s 2014 911 50th Anniversary Edition Turbo S Coupe on BaT
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.
Market Find: 2024 Porsche Paint to Sample Dark Olive Metallic Cayenne S

When it comes to a proper four-season do it all car, Porsche's Cayenne is a pretty unbeatable option.
