Market Find: 2004 Porsche Paint to Sample Zircon Blue Metallic 911 Turbo X50 Cabriolet
Will·
In terms of rarity, 996-generation Paint to Sample Porsches are up there. Graded on that curve, this particular 996 Turbo Cab with X50 package is simply off the charts. Draped in Porsche Paint to Sample Zircon Blue Metallic- a color so rare that Rennbow can only muster a shrug and a Google search of the color shows this car as the only result- this Tailored Driver also represents a bit of a question mark for us.
Market Find: 2024 Porsche Paint to Sample Black Olive GT4 RS
Will·
The myriad shades of Green seem to be in vogue, yet Porsche's Paint to Sample Dark Olive isn't one we see often. Perhaps it's the deeper, more subdued nature of Dark Olive which drives folks to order Nato Olive or Smyrna Green instead, but in our eyes- that's their loss.
Market Find: 2024 Porsche Paint to Sample Smyrna Green 718 Spyder RS
Will·
We're seeing quite the resurgence in Porsche's Paint to Sample Smyrna Green, and to be honest, we don't hate it. In this instance, we can clearly see the lineage between the 356 that Porsche first applied Smyrna to, and the 718 Spyder RS, and we've never been shy about loving a tribute.
Market Find: 2006 Porsche Paint to Sample Riviera Blue 911 Carrera C4S Cabriolet
Will·
It may not get the love that its air-cooled ancestors receive, but the 997-generation 911 gets plenty of admiration due to it's ideal size, relatively modern tech (current, should you get PCCM), and end-of-an-era dynamics that are defining characteristics of early 2000s metal.
Market Find: 2024 Porsche Paint to Sample Aubergine 911 Carrera S
Will·
Paint to Sample offers an incredibly wide array of colors, yet somehow we really only ever see the same 15-20. So when a great vintage-inspired build like the one represented by this Tailored Driver shows up in our searches, it provides perhaps a bit more excitement than we’d care to admit.
Market Find: 2018 Porsche Paint to Sample Viola Purple Metallic 911 GT3
Will·
Not to be confused with the much darker Viola Metallic, Porsche's Paint to Sample Viola Purple Metallic is a much more playful, vibrant flavor of the historically royal color. When paired with Porsche's sporting GT3 variant of it's iconic 911, Viola Purple Metallic represents a juxtaposition that proves its Tailor is not one to take themselves too seriously.
Market Find: 2023 Porsche Paint to Sample Fjord Green 911 Carrera GTS
Will·
If much of the current Porsche market is the safe alternative short-term investment as it may seem, this Paint to Sample Fjord Green 911 Carrera GTS might be considered speculative at best. Allow us to explain- a claimed $136,000 in options were applied to this GTS, just $8,000 shy of matching of the car's $144,000 base price, and then it simply was not driven.
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 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: 2024 Porsche Paint to Sample Dark Olive Metallic Cayenne S
Will·
When it comes to a proper four-season do it all car, Porsche's Cayenne is a pretty unbeatable option.
