Sorry about the delay responding - absolutely knackered last night! 😴

Anyway... I could see that about the ones by the front scuttle - a bit like the bits they put on F1 cars during P1. I was particularly curious about the fillers in the wheel arches. I wonder if they are simply there to either stop prying eyes or maybe to simulate an ultimately tighter wheelarch design?

I was totally bowled over by a Night Blue Cayman. 😜 If I had the cash and somewhere to park it I'd have done the deal there and then!
Got any pics? A friend just ordered a Night Blue Cayman GTS but I don’t think has seen an just-coloured example in the metal.

Sorry Goron but no. And I think maybe it doesn't photograph too well being subtly deep. It is a truly beautiful colour - to me at any rate.

Edit. Just found this link to Hitman999s Macan.

To me the colour has mostly reproduced quite lightly - thus are the issues and limitations surrounding any reproduction of a colour. Not to mention personal perception. I'm sure Hitman will have a viewpoint. Also mine was inside so vastly different lighting conditions.

Ah thanks, I remember this one.

Nice to see with interior GTS badging too 👍
