Market Find: 2019 Volkswagen Golf R Spektrum in Copper Orange Metallic
Though VW doesn't have a tailor of their own, most regular readers of this website should by now know of the Golf Spektrum run of cars. Back in 2019, VW built a large collection of Golf R models painted in micro batches of unobtainium colors. These cars command a premium and are highly sought after when they come up online.

What's the origin of '91 Blue? We don't really know, but it's not that we haven't tried to figure it out. We even reached out to a member of the product team at Volkswagen who made the cars happen. Here's what we got.

One of the more rare Volkswagen Spektrum hues, paired with an old-school 6-speed manual transmission, this Golf R is an exceptionally engaging Tailored Driver at a fairly safe price point.
Market Find: 2019 Volkswagen Spektrum Viper Green Golf R

We've covered Spektrum Golf R's here before, and each time one pops up it's admittedly somewhat of a surprise. Cult following, roughly 200 built (33 in Viper Green), enthusiast brand and model- which is a long way to say "these things are sold before hitting market."
Market Find: 2019 VW Golf R Spektrum in Irish Green (Round 2)
We've said it before (literally) and we'll say it again. Irish Green is one of the best colors you could have gotten on Volkswagen's 2019 run of Golf R Spektrum cars painted very special colors. Yes, we've seen this car before. It transacted on Bring a Trailer late last year, and it looks like it ended up in the inventory of Wyomissing, PA dealer Bay 22.

At this point we suspect our readers are familiar with the Volkswagen Golf R Spektrum series from 2019. In short, 40 different colors were chosen, built, and subsequently sold through the U.S. and Canada. Of those, Ginster Yellow was chosen to hark the 1997 Driver’s Edition GTI (Mk3).
Market Find: 2019 VW Golf R Spektrum in Irish Green
Beyond special or limited edition models, Volkswagen hasn't had its own in-house tailoring department. However, in 2019, then Golf product planner Megan Closset decided to take matters into her own hands. VW of America was never going to set up a program like Audi has with Audi exclusive, but by doing a very limited run of a large spectrum of colors she could effectively do the same thing. So, that run was made ergo "Spektrum", and those cars showed up at dealers with enthusiasts seeking them out like a Hot Wheels Treasuer Hunt.
Market Find: 2019 Volkswagen Spektrum Violet Touch Pearl Golf R

Volkswagen’s Spektrum program was somewhat of a one-hit wonder, with all the right boxes checked- extremely limited run, one year only, enthusiast brand, enthusiast model only. Add to that the rare Spektrum shade of Violet Touch Pearl, a 6 speed manual transmission, and the seemingly reasonable $25,999 asking price, and we’re tempted.
