I think the silver option (one of the three you quoted that you’re considering) would be easier to keep looking cleaner and would show scratches/swirls less.
My Macan was silver (although Rhodium).
Having said that, when I see a Volcano Macan out on the road, I think they look very smart and mean (in a good day). A grey car with red seats, like Guy’s, looks great, I think.

This is about as bright as it gets, on a summer day.Fairynuff wrote: ↑Tue Jan 01, 2019 11:25 amThanks - it does look about as close as you can get to black without being called black! (Love the wheels- WHY did they stop making them?)Orangebulldog wrote: ↑Tue Jan 01, 2019 10:29 am Here’s some pics of mine in Volcano, with contrasting high gloss black. Love the colour which has a very deep sparkle in sunlight. Hard to keep clean. Not as bad as black, but not far off to be honest. Would take it again in a hartbeat though.

Nice photos, a great colour/wheel combination and has a real sparkle in the sunlight. Struggling to move away from it for my next one, at the moment am considering Crayon with gloss black and either 20" turbo or go with the new 21". The wheel pictured has been around quite a few years now so I guess Porsche just like the occasional refresh.

^^ + 1 The crayon looks nice & different but don't fancy paying extra and a much longer wait. Would rather spend the budget on Air and Ptv. And don't want to spend more than 7k on option because then might as well wait for GTS IN 2020.
Generally, the choice for exterior colour and wheels is very limited but overkill on other options.

Crayon/Chalk should not necessitate a longer wait. It’s on the ‘standard’ colour list, but they just charge more for it by referring to it as ‘special’.Firstmacan wrote: ↑Tue Jan 01, 2019 4:36 pm ^^ + 1 The crayon looks nice & different but don't fancy paying extra and a much longer wait...
It’s the PTS paints (Paint to Sample) that involve a long wait and cost a lot more, when available.
