Market Find: Audi exclusive Cassis Pearl Effect RS 6 avant
Will·
Audi exclusive's Cassis Pearl Effect is not a color seen often, but its rarity is not a result of its impact. A vibrant dark burgundy with ample metallic flake, we feel it's more an issue of messaging and awareness than simply being a dud.
Market Find: 2023 Porsche Paint to Sample Gulf Orange 718 Cayman GT4 RS
Will·
At this point, there are likely just as many Paint to Sample optioned 718 Cayman GT4 RS examples on the market as standard-painted versions. So what makes this Gulf Orange example 'special'? Well, for starters, it just may be an encouraging signal to those similarly afflicted that the bubble is starting to deflate.
Market Find: 2023 Audi exclusive TT S line competition Coupé in Goodwood Green
With the Audi TT now out of production, identifying a well-kept Audi exclusive example is a bit of a find. Now throw in a sought-after color such as Goodwood Green and that dials up the desirability even more.
Market Find: Audi exclusive RS 6 in Green… Just Green.
The Audi exclusive color known simply as "Green" is often attributed to Porsche. Whether or not it's an exact match for Porsche we don't know for sure, but it looks the business on an Audi RS car no question.
Market Find: Porsche Paint to Sample Deep Green Pearl Effect Cayenne Turbo
Will·
Borrowed from group mate Audi and added to the formal Paint to Sample offerings in 2023, Deep Green Pearl Effect is a stunning and highly dynamic shade of green. Dark and traditional in the shade and highly bright and metallic in the light, Deep is a personal favorite- bolstered further in this instance by Truffle and Cohiba Brown two-tone leather.
Market Find: Audi exclusive S5 Sportback in Kyalami Green
There's something very Goldie Locks about the Audi S5 Sportback. It's hotter than the budget A5 and a little more attainable than the RS 5. In a lot of ways, it's "just right". Add in a rare Audi exclusive color and goldie gets a little hotter... err... also greener in this case.
Market Find: Porsche Paint to Sample Lava Orange Macan GTS
Will·
Proof that the used car experience can be equally 'fun' regardless of price point and location, this Tailored Driver's Lava Orange paint originally carried a price tag of nearly $12,000. We find it incredibly unfortunate then, that this now $82,998 Tailored proposition was photographed either during the highest humidity ever recorded in Lakeland, Florida, or was taken before cleaning the camera lens.
Market Find: Audi exclusive Nardo Grey SQ8
Will·
Goldilocks references aside, the middleweight SQ8 in many ways is just right. Shown here in the admittedly ubiquitous Nardo Grey paired with Arras Red leather interior and finished with the Black Optic package, the Tailor of this certainly didn't take a risk.
Market Find: 2023 Market Find Audi exclusive Java Green R8 V10 Performance RWD
