    Fortune favors the bold, and with this Tailored Driver, you’ll need to be just that. Paint to Sample Mexico Blue on a higher mileage Macan S, with airbag-deployment history and, to top it all off, a Canadian export, the low price tag is certainly justified.

    Why we love it:

    The 997.2 Turbo S is, in most cases, a Porsche model which wears the ‘good value’ for money badge proudly. Enthusiasts have overlooked the shocking performance due to a lack of engagement from the PDK-only transmission, and as such the 997 Turbo S can often be had for a song- even more so should it’s roof be made of fabric rather than metal. This Tailored Driver is not one of those ‘value’ examples, but when it comes to spec, this is incredibly enticing. Paint to Sample Mexico Blue was a bold choice in 2011, but it works, especially when juxtaposed with Yellow brake calipers and silver center lock wheels. All of this is to say there’s plenty of ‘value’ in this blue chip Turbo S even if the price is a bit high compared to others in market. We think when appreciation for this variant hits, it’ll hit incredibly hard.

  • Market Find: Paint to Sample Mexico Blue Porsche Boxster S

    Market Find: Paint to Sample Mexico Blue Porsche Boxster S

    Before the current generation of Boxster/718, Porsche’s entry level sports car struggled to gain respect. Considered simply a Porsche for folks who couldn’t afford a 911, the Boxster was a bit underpowered and was in most trims outclassed by it’s competitors during magazine shootouts of the day. I suppose it’s without too much shock then, that we can say PTS on early Boxster or Cayman models is fairly rare.

    Finished in Paint to Sample Mexico Blue, this 2007 Porsche Boxster S (VIN: WP0CB29887U731094) has covered just 18,613 miles since leaving Porsche Rocklin some 17 years ago. That’s a shame, because Paint to Sample Mexico blue paired with Cocoa Brown extended leather is quite the head turner. Understandably the car appears to be in quite good condition having never really been used, but the slightly lower stance suggests each trip was a spirited one.

    This Paint to Sample Porsche Boxster S is currently on offer by our friends at Gran Prix Motors in Portland, Oregon for an asking price of $39,900. Get all the details on this Tailored Driver, here.

  • Market Find: Audi exclusive Mexico Blue S5 coupe

    Market Find: Audi exclusive Mexico Blue S5 coupe

    Finished in the frankly stunning Audi exclusive Mexico Blue, this Audi S5 is proof that the world of Tailored Driver isn’t merely reserved for the wealthy.

    Currently on offer at GW Trucks in Jacksonville, FL, this S5 (VIN: WAUP4AF58JA103574) has an asking price of a relatively reasonable $25,995, and has covered just under 70,000 miles since new. We’d say the juxtaposition of bright Audi exclusive Mexico Blue paint with the relative calm of Rotor Gray leather works quite well here, somewhat enhanced by carbon fiber dash trim. Very tasteful.

    We do wish images were a bit better and higher resolution, but we’re confident whoever acquires this Tailored Driver will be quite happy indeed.
