    Mega Spec: Dark Olive Metallic over Cocoa Extended Leather 911 Targa 4

    What: 2007 Porsche 911 Targa 4
    Color: Dark Olive Metallic (dunkelolive metallic; M6X; 7G; Porsche)
    VIN:  WP0BA29917S745230
    Mileage: 56,551 miles
    Price: $73,997

    Window Sticker: N/A
    Location: Concord, CA
    Listing: Vanquish Motors

    No Paint to Sample, no Leather to Sample, just an incredibly tasteful Tailored Driver build using standard menu ingredients. This 997-generation 911 Targa 4 was ordered by some sort of visionary, being built in the early stages of a global economic meltdown and delivered to Carrera Motors Porsche in Bend, Oregon where we can only assume it shared space with a plethora of black, grey, and silver. We’ve featured Dark Olive before and we’re delighted to do so again as it is one of the most dynamic colors in the range. Shown here on a Targa 4 with an equally tasteful Cocoa brown leather- extended, of course- and a 6 speed manual transmission, we anticipate this one won’t be around for long.

    Why we love it:

    In modern times, where we’re all a bunch of judgy Karens scrolling past click-bait graphics of celebrities whose houses mysteriously didn’t burn down in the L.A. fires, it’s hard to not be a little solemn at the idea of a MY2024 Porsche returning to the pre-owned lot with barely 1,000 miles on it. Find some grace though, because this one’s special and we’d argue the person who specced and owned it for barely 1K miles is still deserving… even if modern Porsche “used” status means a notable markup.

    We’re going to make some assumptions here, but consider them educated guesses. We’re guessing your common quick flipper wouldn’t build a car like this. Okay, maybe a PTS allotment for the teacher’s pet client at Porsche Anywhere isn’t that rare, but subtle Dark Olive Metallic straight up and sans stickers or nostalgic livery nods isn’t your typical spec and flip behavior. Nor is fitting a set of custom fuchs-inspired Rotiform rally wheels finished in a muted and tasteful gold and then leaving them on for the trade in order to go to the new customer. We’re going to hat tip the builder of this car, for living his or her best life, building a tasteful thing and actually logging **some** miles before passing it on and likely taking delivery of some other brilliant specification we’ll be featuring here in six months.

    What: 2024 Porsche Cayenne S
    Color: Paint to Sample Dark Olive Metallic (dunkelolive metallic; M6X; 7G; Porsche)
    VIN: WP1AL2AY9RDA35572
    Mileage: 1,488

    Why we love it:

    When it comes to a proper four-season do it all car, Porsche’s Cayenne is a pretty unbeatable option. This particular Cayenne S has the added benefit of wearing Paint to Sample Dark Olive Metallic paint, an incredibly rare shade that’s equal parts black and green depending on the light, with a vibrant metallic shine that really pops. As an added bonus, this Tailored Driver also sports brown seat belts, deviated stitching and a Race-Tex steering wheel, which really get us excited. Criminally subtle in the shade and a true stunner in the sunshine, we love the spec.
