You see the OCD in me would need to paint the skirts as you have gloss black blades an inch away from Matt black skirts - if they are Matt black blades, then they are next to gloss black handles… aaahhh I’m going mad with this config stuff!!!!!
Cure the OCD in you and spec Black.
If anything, black can be harder to keep looking clean than white! ;)

I spec'ed Carrara white. When the two whites are side by side the flat white looks dull.

Painted the blades and rear panel as well.

GTS on ordered. Next colour Carmine or Dolomite.

Must confess that when, I went to view my Carrara White Macan S @ the OPC, I wondered whether it looked like a big girls shoe! Very similar ext spec to @SP6IGHT, with Agate Grey interior. Since then I have come to think that it is actually a very good colour, when the sun is out it really sparkles and when it is dull or dark it is highly visible, on B roads in the country I think that is a good thing. It also stays clean looking for a long time as well, much better that my previous dark metallic coloured car.

Give it a while and I’m sure that a ‘cut & shut’ could be arranged at a suitable breaker’s yard! ;)

Back in the 80s / 90s I had four white cars in succession and liked it as a practical colour for an everyday car. But like some others here I don’t think it suits the Macan.
