It's not often we see Audi exclusive paint applied to the more everyman-friendly priced models, so when it does happen, we're quick to take note. There's a lot to like here- for just $23,499, you can be one of what we assume to be incredibly few who can call a Tailored Q3 their own.

Market Find: “The Denmark Commission” Singer Classic Study Porsche 911
In modern parlance, the "Classic Study" from Singer is effectively its original format. While in the earliest days of the Southern California-based Porsche reimagineer this was the Singer model, subsequent launches of the extreme DLS or more G-body inspired Turbo now mean the original F-body or so-called "longhood" inspired car is known as the "Classic Study".
Market Find: 2020 Mercedes-AMG E 63 S in Porsche Graphite Blue Metallic

Market Find: Audi exclusive RS 3 in Velvet Purple in Houston
Audi exclusive RS 3s are a bit more rare than some of the larger and more luxurious Audi RS models. We’re guessing you have more owners reaching to get into their first RS car, and maybe Audi exclusive paint is a bridge too far. For us though, rarity only makes it more desirable.
