Im with Bigboyrolo. Biased clearly, owning a jet black Macan. It is a big car to go for bold colours. Doubtful you will love Miami blue during the northern European winter months. Having said that, I am seriously tempted speccing that colour on the 718 I covet....

Gotta agree with Nosmo there. Whilst I admire those brave enough to go with bold colours on a Macan, with my own money though it's too big a car for that, certainly in the British climate. I've seen some on the American forums that look great in Viper Green in the LA sun though.

Must say I love the Cayman in some of those colours, it wears it well. Graphite Blue if I was speccing a 718 now. (Don't tempt me).

I like the look of a brightly coloured Porsche in winter... Wink

Agreed. As I'm now hooked on Porsche for life, I will quite possibly get a Porsche sports car in the future in Miami Blue or similar. These colours do suit a sports car (911, Cayman, Boxster) better than a larger car, IMHO.

Well, I have also become another Porsche fan, always was really. it seems Wing Co and I agree on Porsche colours, not too wild for Macan or Cayenne (respect to the #team red owners), but almost anything on a sports car. I was overruled by Son and Wife on Carmine for the Macan, and I now agree with them, so VG it is. On a Cayman or 911 I would have Orange, but a Macan in Gulf Oil(?) colours would only look good on a race track, imo.

To the OP - metallic black would be my choice as well. At the PEC last week there was a bright yellow Macan that I couldn't take my eyes off - a bit like when you see a really, really ugly person. Sorry if this offends anyone with a yellow car - but I thought it was horrendous!

Thought you were going to say "Sorry if this offends anyone who is ugly" LOL

LOL As far as I know we only have one forum member who owns a yellow Macan. Bought from Silverstone if memory serves me right. Confused
