Grey - so much classier than grandad beige!

A warm welcome Nodgel.

Yes grey will be classier and a better match with the dashboard / instruments and standard black seat belts.

I would have taken Pebble in my first SD if it hadn’t been paired with Agate (brown😉)

Pebble is a lovely 'off-white' that brings a bit of light into the cabin. The agate dash looks good but I must admit the black is a little better... (imho)

Go with the pebble -you won't regret it.

Neither.

The Pebble grey is part of the two tone selection and the Agate Grey which is part of this combo has a very brown hue, see it in sunlight and it really is brown. It will clash very badly with your midnight blue paintwork.

It is a pity that Pebble Grey with Black dash etc is not available as a standard extra

I disagree... I had a Cayman in Sapphire Blue with Agate interior (with pebble seat centres/arm rests) and it looked absolutely stunning!! Although looking at the Macan configurator it's only the dash top, door tops & steering wheel that are Agate, the whole seats and lower door cards are pebble, which will get grubby real quick in my opinion!

The Mojave really isn't 'grandad' beige either, it's actually more like what BMW used to call 'dark oyster' which was an option with their (now scrapped) 'modern' trim in the outgoing F30! Mojave actually looks really nice to me.

Personally Agate grey is the only interior I'd get in a Porsche... I love it as it is less drab than the ubiquitous black but still dark enough to hide grubby marks! It really isn't brown either, the configurator actually shows the hue pretty accurately, I'd say it's more a dark stone colour!

All I'd say is, whatever you go for will look stunning.... Porsche don't do naff interiors!!

BTW

Please do not choose the Pebble/Agate without being 100% sure and actually seeing said combination in the flesh.

Us guys have very inconsistent colour recognition and what is one shade to one guy is a totally different shade to another.

I see that nozydog disagrees with me which is fine but as I said in my previous Agate is very brown to me, what it is like to you is another matter.

Also it is not, nor has it been a popular choice so expect a bigger hit on trade in value when the time comes.

Hence you need to see the combo yourself to be sure.
