Hi All,

I have placed an order on a Cayenne as per thread below, but not I was really keen on a grey model which was not available in the UK.

I have therefore chosen dark blue - I note there is still plenty of time before order lockdown.

I noted today on the German's website that the Cayenne is now available in Germany in Grey - this was a recent addition as it was not available last week. I can't still see this change in the UK website.

Any idea on how long it takes for this change to be available? I did email Porsche about 3 weeks ago and they chose not to give a straight answer, advising me to contact my dealership....

Any help is appreciated

I suspect that Quartz Grey ( code 3M) will appear shortly on U.K. configurator. Its only available from June 2018 production. Ask your dealer to put your order through with the paint code option 3M.

by the way, what % of the base price is the consensus on ordering the Cayenne?

Most say to stick to 10% on the Macan for re-sale, I am getting to about 14-15% at the moment. Tough the whole optionals list, should I try to stick to 10%? Again thinking of the deal other than the "desired spec"

You tend to find that once production gets moving Porsche will then start to add additional colours and options, I have a few customers wanting to have Side-steps but also not available at the moment. Quartz - Looks stunning. We had a Biscay Blue which also looked really nice with Black/Mojave.....

Get the spec that you want or you will forever be saying "next time I will add 🤔"

Thanks, appreciate your response. Do you mind checking tomorrow in the system if Quartz is already available in the UK for orders?

Just had a quick look on PPN and no sign of Quartz, I've got a manic day tomorrow but will try and make a call and come back to you.
