Long awaited Sapphire Blue now available

[David B]

Good question! I need to learn how to cut & paste from the configurator to here, but roughly:

PASM, SC and Sports Exhaust

Sport Design 20 with AS tyres

18 way seats + partial leather (black)

Heated seats - F & R

Seat crests - F & R

3 zone air con

£2k for a glorified TomTom, sorry PCM! Grrr!

Black rails & bars

Black window surrounds

Privacy glass

Pano

Plus other odds & sods comes to a shade over £59k eek!

I went for the blue as a lot of new cars (not just Macans, where there was no choice really until sapphire came out) are very monochrome. Hopefully Carmine Red will be available on the Macan for my next one!

Brave man!

IMHO Porsche need to widen the colour choices to include a darkish red (Carmine?) and a a non Kermit type Green similar to this:

+1 for Sapphire Blue. OPC hasn't given me a date for locking the spec. but I've finally decided on everything anyway

[David B]

Agreed, the colour range really does need to be widened, but IMHO subtle greens do not work on Porsches. Astons & Bentleys yes, but not on a Porsche, unless it's a kermit green GT2/GT3.

I would like to see diamond white available. That would look great combines with a GTS format.

Chris S - agreed! It's a leading edge car, let's have some leading edge colours!

I'm another one who's holding out for Sapphire... changed to November build for me to be safe

Has your dealer confirmed when your Oct build has to be locked down?

Reason I ask was that I was in another dealer on Friday (long story - possibly getting something a bit different instead of the Macan; still 4wd & Turbo charge though... ) and had a couple of missed calls from my dealer - he speculated they were probably after my final spec as they had to get November builds locked down this week - though they haven't returned my call since so don't know..

[Nosmo]

Trickster, which OPC are you with?

[Jembo]

Cruise still coming up online as chargeable extra and my dealer hasn't said anything otherwise (have ordered std cruise). Is this definite as will have to question that one? Have they added anything else as standard for September build. Biggest fear is that eventually the diesel S will get the SQ5 engine that it should have been given in the first place - if that happens, what will this do to residuals?

Nice spec. Can someone explain what exactly is the sport design pack/side skirts????

Why the CD changer, just stream music from your phone or upload to jukebox?
