    Why we love it:

    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. Showing just 1,578 miles, this Spyder RS has completed it’s break in period, which means you can properly cane it as well without fear. Let’s take this opportunity to thank the original Tailor, not just for the color choice, but for also getting the boring stuff out of the way as they flip their way to whatever allocation is next.

  • Market Find: 2024 Porsche 911 GT3 RS in Smyrna Green

    Market Find: 2024 Porsche 911 GT3 RS in Smyrna Green

    Another day, another tailored German car painted Porsche Smyrna Green (smyrnagrün; non-metallic UNI; Z33; Porsche). This time around, the car in question is a 2024 Paint to Sample 911 GT3 RS (Vin: WP0AF2A91RS272361) with just 91 miles on the odometer in the used inventory over at Aston Martin Boston.

    Anyone following along with the Porsche market right now will know that unless you’ve logged a big back catalogue of Porsches purchased new, not to mention likely a watch or two, you probably won’t be getting an allotment for a car as sought after as the 911 GT3 RS, much less an allotment with Paint to Sample attached. Picking one up on the used market, albeit with a healthy markup, is probably the easiest way to procure a car right now. So, when a clearly thought-out example like this Paint to Sample Smyrna Green GT3 RS hits a dealer’s inventory, much less with effectively delivery miles on it, we definitely think it’s worth a second look if you have the means.

    We found this car freshly dropped on AutoTrader, and reached out to the associated dealer – Aston Martin Boston. Their sales manager Jamie Ramirez got back to us almost immediately, confirming the color was Smyrna Green. Her team also confirmed the car is one of two Smyrna Green 992 GT3 RS sold to North America, and one of one with a Canadian VIN. Given it’s Canadian and for sale in the USA, we she also confirmed the car’s warranty has been transferred to the States. We sincerely appreciated the fast and thorough turnaround, so would suggest you seek her out should you reach out to them to inquire about the car. To that end, HERE is a link to the listing.

  • Market Find: Is This BMW Individual M3 Competition Painted Porsche Smyrna Green

    Market Find: Is This BMW Individual M3 Competition Painted Porsche Smyrna Green

    We’re always fans of those creating tailored specifications electing to cross brand borders in selecting a color. Take for instance this 2025 BMW M3 Competition xDrive at Sewell BMW Plano. Ethan Ledbetter from the dealer posted it over on the BMW Individual market & discussion Group on Facebook and confirmed it’s “Smyrna Green”. Based not eh pictures, we’re next to positive it’s Porsche’s Smyrna Green (smyrnagrün; non-metallic uni; S0A; BMW).

    How do we know it’s Porsche’s color? Google it and you’ll see this non-metallic green on the teal side of the green spectrum is pretty unique. While the photos in the post aren’t the greatest lighting, it’s kind of hard to mistake that color.

    Here’s what else we know about the car. It’s got Orange/Black extended Merino leather, Parking Assistance Package, Executive Package, M Drive Professional, M Sport Differential, Mobility Kit, Adaptive M Suspension, M Shadowline Lights, M Carbon Bucket Seats, Drive Recorder and M Carbon Exterior Package.

    We’re going to go ahead and include a link to the Facebook post along with the associated photos for reference below.

    Market Find: Paint to Sample Smyrna Green Porsche GT3 RS

    Originally available on the 356, Porsche’s Smyrna Green (smyrnagrün; non-metallic UNI; Z33; Porsche) is one of the more underutilized shades of Stuttgart’s rainbow. But for me, it represents somewhat of a generational conversation. Much like asking “what show is Uncle Jessie from?” to folks of differing ages will get an answer which varies between Full House and Dukes of Hazzard, you wouldn’t be shocked to hear Millennials and Gen X swear this is actually Evergreen from BMW’s M roadster and coupe.

    Whichever way you lean, this Porsche GT3 RS (VIN: WP0AF2A91RS272361) represents a display for forceful restraint. Beyond the obvious, you’ll find a long list of options including the Weissach Package, yellow deviated stitching throughout, numerous surfaces covered in Race-Tex, and the extended range fuel tank among others.

    Currently on offer at Merit Partners, this GT3 RS has covered just 92(!) miles since new, and pricing is available upon request. If you have the means, we highly recommend picking this Tailored Driver up.
