OK Members, I'm putting myself in your hands!

I simply can't decide if to go for Crayon (stunning with 21" GT wheels although expensive) or the "safe" Volcano Grey. Wife thinks Crayon is faddy and I admit it can look beige and is very common. What do you learned members think? Please reply with either Crayon or Volcano Grey as no other alternatives are in the running. The most popular reply is what I will go for!

Thanks in anticipation.

Interesting dilemma. My first Macan was Volcano Grey and my current is Crayon, they are both great although I don’t see that Crayon is as common, I think it may be that as it is on your mind you notice it more❓ I decided on the Crayon after seeing it on a 911 and since personally like it on every model in the range. To live with them both, Crayon of course shows the dirt quickly whereas Volcano being a dark metallic, if not washed carefully will reflect any surface swirls more readily. I don’t think you’ll be unhappy with either, but as the question is which colour? My vote is for 🤔 umm, you choose 😉

I’ve ordered Volcano. Just saw one this morning in Volcano and it looked very classy ( it was a GTS ). If you care about resale value I suspect Volcano will have more takers on the second hand market. I suggest you see which one you get the most votes for then either pick the opposite or flip a coin.
