The green wouldn't be my choice but it does look great. Sadly not available now unless you spend £6k.

The £6k+ price for a special colour makes no sense to me. If it was £2.5k I'd seriously consider doing so (that Oak Green looked lovely), and I suspect so would others, but at £6k I doubt they get many takers. Appreciate for those that do it's about exclusivity but if they want that they shouldn't be buying a Macan.

Yep its a bonkers mark up for what is just 'paint' in a less popular colour.

Appreciate its an economies of scale thing but I suspect that at least 75% of the mark-up is purely a 'piss take' premium. :evil:

Does anyone have a proper insight? :?:

presumably there is a logistical issue. If you have watched the YouTube video that shows the Macan being bolted together they cover the paint application in some detail. I guess individual paints need to be made up and somehow slotted into the production line for the specific car. Not sure how that would work other than manually

This Gentian blue GTS looks great. Even though I’ll most likely be going Miami blue or Carmine Red.

Why compromise on a colour you do not really want.

Why not buy a standard solid white or black and spend £2k or so getting it wrapped?
