What: 2018 Audi TT RS Color: Audi exclusive Suzuka Grey Pearl Effect(SuzukaGrau; pearl effect; LY7F / M1 ; Audi) Chassis: WUACSAFVXJ1901312 Mileage: 28,200 mi Price: $52,900 CarFax: N/A Window Sticker: N/A Location: Santa Barbara, CA Sales listing:Link
As a color, Suzuka Grey began in the B7 RS 4 era. It’s a light bluish grey that often gets mistaken for white. In person though, the color has an interesting depth that pops amongst white cars and takes on different colors as you can see in the varying lighting conditions even in this listing’s basic photo set.
Though standard in some Audi RS cars during other eras, Suzuka Grey was not an option in the Mk3 TT RS. In as much, it would have been an Audi exclusive special.
This one has a few modifications, most obviously those large black wheels seen in photos. Whether those wheels improve the overall look of the car is up for debate and in the eye of the beholder, but what we can all agree on is that the final TT RS generation makes for a substantive performance car. Now out of production, those seeking them should be seeking a unique and/or well kept specimen and we think this one applies.
McLaren is headed back to Le Mans, 30 years since the brand’s most recent victory at the fabled French endurance race. In as much, there’s plenty to celebrate and Woking plans to do that with this special edition 750S coupe.
On June 18, it will have been 30 years since drivers JJ Lehto, Yannick Dalmas and Masanori Sekiya stood on the top of the podium beneath the iconic Rolex race clock and celebrated their victory – the first appearance at Le Mans for McLaren, though it would be their only victory there since.
Acknowledging that 30-year anniversary will be just 50 examples of McLaren’s 750S. The design features a new MSO High Downforce Kit (HDK) that bestow the 750S with additional track-focused enhancements. Further additions include a roof scoop, unique 5-spoke LM wheel design harkening the wheels of the 1995 Le Mans-winning car plus further Le Mans branding.
Colors will be limited as well, though several will be offered. These include Le Mans Grey or McLaren Orange exterior. Inside, Carbon Black with Dove Grey or Carbon Black with McLaren Orange interiors are meant to complement or contrast.
McLaren plans a return to Le Mans, and is set to arrive in 2027 with a new LMDh prototype squarely aimed at that top step beneath the Rolex clock. Until then, 50 lucky McLaren owners can celebrate the plan in their very own 750S Le Mans special edition.
Further details can be found in the original press release and gallery below.

McLaren Automotive celebrates the 30th anniversary of its winning debut at the 24 Hours of Le Mans – completing a unique Triple Crown* achievement – and McLaren’s return to the top class of the event from 2027. With just 50 cars being built, the 750S Le Mans is set to be one of the most sought-after McLaren series production supercars.
On June 18, 1995 McLaren F1 GTR #59 – driven by JJ Lehto, Yannick Dalmas and Masanori Sekiya – won the gruelling 24-hour race, joined by three more McLaren F1 GTRs in the top five placings. Just days before the 30th anniversary, two McLaren GT3 EVO cars – based on the 750S – will compete for LMGT3 honours at this year’s edition of the endurance classic.
The McLaren 750S Le Mans pays homage to the iconic #59 F1 GTR with matching Le Mans Grey exterior paint – with the option of McLaren Orange also available – roof scoop and 5-spoke LM wheels. It will also feature the new MSO High Downforce Kit (HDK), which adds visual drama to the 750S with a raised carbon fibre Active Rear Spoiler with integral endplates. In conjunction with a front bumper featuring an enlarged carbon fibre splitter and rear wing, downforce is increased by 10 per cent compared to the standard 750S, enhancing track performance and echoing the famous McLaren F1 LM edition’s aerodynamic additions. Completing the HDK package is a new body-coloured carbon fibre under-wing panel featuring gloss black louvres.
McLaren 750S Le Mans customers will also have a choice of Carbon Black with Dove Grey or Carbon Black with McLaren Orange interior colour combinations with Le Mans branding and a dedication plaque, with all cars featuring a portfolio of unique features as standard:

An optional track record plaque lists the 1995 Le Mans victory, with Triple Crown* achievements also featured alongside McLaren’s many significant motorsport successes. Mounted in the front luggage compartment, this option is available to purchasers of all new 750S cars.
Purchasers of the Le Mans edition cars will also benefit from the multi-award winning** benchmark-beating 750S performance delivered by the mid-mounted, 750PS M840T 4.0-litre, twin-turbocharged V8 McLaren engine. A motorsport-inspired carbon fibre Monocage II central structure and Proactive Chassis Control III suspension system help to ensure that the 750S is the lightest and most agile car in its class, now enhanced by the HDK aerodynamic additions.
“The 750S Le Mans marks not just 30 years since our debut victory in the iconic race but an exciting time for the brand with McLaren GT3 EVO cars competing in this year’s race and the announcement of our return to the top, Hypercar class in 2027.
This exclusive 750S is the first McLaren Le Mans edition since the F1 LM to feature HDK aerodynamic enhancements and is set to become one of our most sought-after supercars, with previous Le Mans editions of the 650S and 720S commanding a premium over standard models.”

We can’t be mad at any dealer for trying, so when the private seller of this Tailored Driver says “the dealer had it set up to look like an RS“, we’ll go ahead and assume that includes the RS 6 badge found stuck to the rear tailgate. Moving past this easy to remove faux pas, this A6 allroad is a fairly handsome spec- Audi exclusive Nardo grey with black optic package and contrasting dark cladding. In a world where wagons- especially big wagons- are harder and harder to find without an AMG or RS badge, this could be your ticket to the Tailored Driver elite without the hefty insurance premium that often comes with.

Crewe, England – Bentley Motors proudly announces its latest global collaboration with a leading luxury hotel, underscoring the growing demand for luxury, chauffeur-driven experiences. The Galaxy Hotel in Macau, China – one of the world’s largest Forbes double five-star properties – has taken delivery of the largest fleet of bespoke Flying Spur Mulliner sedans to date with an official handover ceremony at the hotel on 29 April. The nine handcrafted four-door Bentleys extend the resort’s legacy of superlative transport and bespoke luxury experiences, providing guests with a seamless blend of performance, elegance, and unparalleled craftsmanship.
Mulliner – Bentley Motors’ bespoke division – continues to set the standard in handcrafted automotive luxury. The Flying Spur Mulliner offers a striking visual distinction, combining bespoke craftsmanship with the Ultra Performance Hybrid powertrain as standard. The Galaxy Hotel collaborated with the team at Mulliner to meticulously design the luxury sedans, offering a sense of timeless elegance crafted at the renowned Dream Factory in Crewe.
The Pinnacle in Automotive Craftsmanship The new Flying Spur Mulliner is built around Bentley’s new Ultra Performance Hybrid powertrain, endowing it with a breadth of capabilities. Capable of serene, silent progress in pure EV mode, the four-door sedan can travel for up to 47 miles (76 km), ideal for Zero Emission Zones or city travel, and with CO2 emissions 90 per cent lower than the previous generation Flying Spur Speed. The full electric mode can be deployed at speeds of up to 87 mph / 140 km/h, with throttle applications of up to 75 per cent for a quiet and refined driving experience.
The Mulliner versions define the pinnacle of the Bentley Flying Spur. On the exterior, the Pale Brodgar Mulliner paintwork is detailed with the signature emblem of The Galaxy Hotel, stenciled and hand-painted on the two front doors of each sedan. Custom Galaxy Hotel puddle lamps have also been commissioned to welcome guests as they step inside the cabin.
An Elegant Interior with Attention to Detail In the interior, all four seats come specified with Wellness Seating as standard. This includes Seat Auto Climate and Postural Adjust, which measures and maintains the perfect body temperature via zoned heating and ventilation, and soothingly and seamlessly varies the pressure on the occupants’ muscles throughout their journey to ensure fatigue is minimised. The attention to detail is highlighted further with hand stitched logos of The Galaxy Hotel to the seats. The rear passenger doors open to reveal a further hand stitched emblem detail that tucks away neatly once the Soft-Close Doors shut effortlessly.
Luxury Journeys Following the successful collaboration with The Peninsula London which saw four Bentayga hybrids become part of their in-house chauffeur fleet. Building on this relationship, The Peninsula Hong Kong commissioned a further eight Bentayga EWB Azures, now part of its house car offering. The Galaxy Macau Hotel, now securing the largest fleet of Flying Spurs in one location, reflects the growing appeal of Bentley among luxury hotels, who increasingly view the marque as the ultimate expression of refined, chauffeur-driven travel.

What: 2022 Audi SQ7 Color: Audi exclusive Nardo Grey(nardograu; UNI; LY7C; Audi) VIN: WA1AWBF70ND018415 Mileage: 57,590 miles Price: $50,487 CarFax:Link Window Sticker: N/A Location: Upper Saddle River, NJ Listing:Jack Daniels Audi of Saddle River
Perhaps we’ve said it before, but we’ll proudly say it again- Audi’s SQ7 is the most under-rated vehicle in their lineup. The RS 6 gets all the looks, and the S/RS Q8 gets all the Urus comparisons, but if you want a 500hp family hauler that’ll road trip with the best of ’em, look no further. A fortunate side effect of that lack of attention and admiration, for us at least, is Q7-style depreciation. Just three years old, having no prior accidents reported, and showing 57,000 miles on the odometer, this SQ7 is now for sale at approximately 50% of it’s original price. Are these things really that cheap? A quick cars.com search suggests that yep, they sure are. This particular example sporting Audi exclusive Nardo Grey paint seems like a great way to get into a Tailored Driver that punches well above its weight for $50k.
What: 2008 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet Color: Paint to Sample Linen Grey Metallic (leinenmetallic; metallic UNI; 55; Porsche) VIN: WP0CB29918S777288 Mileage: 65,920 miles Price: $55,950 CarFax:Link Window Sticker: Pictured Below Location: Bellevue, WA Listing:Park Place Limited
Perhaps in current times a C4S cab with a $126k sticker price wouldn’t be a shock (they now start at $159k), but back in 2008 it was nearly unheard of. Yet here we find ourselves, featuring this Linen-on-Linen sporting both Paint and Leather to Sample from the factory. Due to the beauty of depreciation and a minor on the CarFax from 2018, this frankly impressive build can be had for less than half the cost it was new- before inflation. We’d be remiss if we didn’t admit this spec isn’t one that would normally get such a big reaction in our offices, but the level of taste displayed is tough to match. The subtlety of its paint matched center console that ever-so-slightly contrasts the miles of Linen leather is just spectacular, as is the choice of Carbon accents over a more theme-appropriate wood grain. Our only edit would be to toss the aftermarket for a Porsche Classic unit.
Initially created as a Paint to Sample Plus color in 2017 and added to the standard Paint to Sample palate in 2023, Alex Grey has quite the story behind it. Tracing it’s roots back to 1962 when Dutch Police needed a faster horse to ensure safety on roads that at the time were without speed limits, the Rijkspolitie turned it’s attention to Porsche and their 356. This created a partnership that resulted in a fleet of 507 Porsches in total until the Dutch opted for something more ordinary and cancelled the program in 1996. As they are want to do, Porsche celebrated the partnership with a special edition in 2017, contracting Studio Piet Boon to do-develop a color and livery for the car. Alex Grey as shown here was the result, which oddly enough is in no way representative of the aforementioned Rijkspolitie liveried cars. But what it is, is a very deep, incredibly vibrant Grey- much more vibrant than Audi’s Nardo, and much more distinct than Fashion Grey or even Grey Black.
What: 2019 Audi RS 5 sportback Color: Audi exclusive Kemora Grey Metallic(metallic-UNI; LX7F; Audi) VIN: WUACWCF51KA904939 Mileage: 69,872 miles Price: $40,991 CarFax:Link Window Sticker: N/A Location: Carrolton, TX Listing:Texas Hot Rides
There’s no use in sugar-coating it- this RS 5 sportback has been hit. Twice. But with a cost of entry that reflects- just $40k- does this represent good Tailored Driver value for money? To us, yeah, totally. Audi’s RS 5 might not be the fire starter that BMW’s M3 is, but its still no slouch. Couple that value and performance with the cult favorite that is Audi exclusive Kemora Grey, and we see a real winner here.
It’s fair to say that Audi’s Daytona Grey is relatively ubiquitous. The shade has been offered on so many models, usually bearing “RS” nomenclature… but not always. It’s handsome, but commonality has a way of eroding a paint color’s appeal when considering a tailored build. We’d guess Daytona is fairly on the wane at Audi exclusive, but Daytona Grey Matte is something altogether different.
Why’s Daytona Grey Matte so appealing? Well, for starters it’s a metallic that gives it some extra punch. More importantly, while dark, it’s enough of a shade lighter than black that it pairs so effectively with gloss black optics.
Murdering out a Daytona Grey Matte car is subtle and yet so appealing, making the gloss black details pop, while the matte finish brings into focus every character line of the car. On the most recent RS 3 body, this adds a surprising level of richness.
This is also an RS 3 Sportback. We don’t get this car in North America, and that’s a bit of a shame. On the A3 family, the RS 3 isn’t exactly a Sportback like say an A5 or an A7. It’s instead something like an Avant, but not as long. Think of it like hatchback with a low roofline and you get the picture. To us, this is a most modern interpretation of the Lancia Delta Integrale package… and we’re good with that.

What: 2025 Audi SQ5 Color: Audi exclusive Kemora Grey Metallic(metallic-UNI; LX7F; Audi) VIN: WA1C4AFY6S2054201 Mileage: 9.4 Miles Price: $77,285 CarFax: N/A Window Sticker: N/A Location: Concord, CA Listing:Audi Concord
Audi exclusive Kemora Grey is hot, and for our money the SQ5 is one of the more under-rated models in Audi’s current lineup. Does that make this a must-have Tailored Driver? Maybe, if not for the seeming astronomical list price of $77,285.. and that’s after you factor the $5,000 discount placed on its hood. If you’re in the lease market, the story doesn’t get much better. So while Tailored Finance this is not, we can’t help but think the play here might be to set a Google alert for this VIN and wait for depreciation to take hold.
