Market Find: BMW Individual Fiji Green 320i Convertible

The 90s, man. Fiji Green over a slightly more traditional green leather interior is a bold choice now, but back then it seemed like a great choice. What we can all (maybe?) agree on is that this E36 has aged incredibly well, and that it's sub-€10k asking price is seemingly reasonable.
EU Market Find: BMW Individual Atlantis Blue Metallic 520i Touring
Will·
While it's easier to attain a Tailored Driver if your wallet is thick enough to require chiropractic intervention, we think it's more fun when Tailored status is within reach of the everyman or woman. At €3,500 (about $3700 USD, plus shipping) this E39-generation 520i Touring painted in BMW Individual Atlantis Blue Metallic and paired with the frankly wild Boa Boa cloth interior and a timeless 5 speed manual transmission is exactly that- fun.
Special Order Lapis Blue 1999 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG in Gooding Amelia Island Sale
During the era Mercedes-Benz was producing its first-generation W202 C-Class, special paint colors were less common than the more apparent MANUFAKTUR presence today. Bold colors like the Lapis Blue shade shown here were even less common, except perhaps in Europe where home market offerings were a bit more fanciful.
EU Market Find: Great Spec B5 Audi A4 Avant in Laurel Green
It's cars like this that make our staff come to blows. Why? Perhaps a better question is why not?
European Market Find: Mystery Blue 1999 Mercedes-Benz E 55 AMG Avantgarde Wagon
Hear us out. Yes, we know the E 55 AMG Station Wagon was sold in the United States. They're exceedingly rare, especially in solid survivor condition, but they were sold here. Still, anyone who loves these cars or is seeking a unique long roof may find this one worth going through the extra effort of importation. That it's old enough for easy import is one obvious reason, but more so is the unique build specification this car got from the factory. This sort of specification would have been extremely difficult if not impossible for anyone in North America to order, so it's worth noting... even if it does have a dash of turn-of-the-century Y2K kitsch in the color choices.
Market Find: Grigio Ingrid Ferrari 550 Maranello in Broad Arrow Monterey Sale
Red Ferraris may not be dime-a-dozen, but they're kind always expected. So, when you have an owner spec the car in something entirely less obvious, you've always got a winner. Take for example this 1999 550 Maranello in rare Grigio Ingrid Metallic, a platinum silver that isn't even your typical silver. That's paired with Bordeaux and Crema leather with optional Crema piping for one very lavish cabin.
Market Find: Mercedes-Benz G 500 Classic Cabriolet at Broad Arrow Monterey
As G-Wagen's go, the G 500 Classic Cabriolet is an incredibly rare specimen. This one is finished in Almandine Black Metallic that is actually an incredibly dark red. Paired with two-tone Black and Purple Nappa Leather interior, it's a subtle yet distinct specification that is sure to please.
