Made only one change so far, removed the badging from rear, rather to be a little inconspicuous, when driving a Porsche it often attracts the wrong attention, always someone wants to prove they are quicker in all sorts of cars. What is the best/worst example you have had? And would appreciate opinion on my spec before I put it firmly to bed, thanks all 🤔

Can't see many more boxes you could tick - not a fan of sunroofs myself (each to their own)

Have you seen a Volcano colour sample yet? There's another post somewhere which suggests its quite black which might not suit your Agate interior? (Although the pebble /agate contrast is something I fancied - just wasn't brave enough to marry it with Sapphire because of the brownness in the agate)

Top spec! My thoughts are so close to yours. Only changes (IMHO) are I prefer Xenons (no go with Exterior pack it seems) and black interior. BUT, those are really individual choices.... Otherwise totally agree with the spec! Looking forward to eyeing Volcano Grey in the flesh before I have to lock down though. You willing to take the risk, MikeM?

Thanks Paul, haven't seen it but Porsche had a lava grey a few years ago on 911 and looks similar, your right much darker and closer to black than the agate. The pebble is very light, but used to light interiors. Had a sapphire with full platignum, that was very nice but sadly not available with macan

Thanks atahankey, hopefully it's not to big a risk, Porsche are not best when it comes to mass colour variants, they are not a high volume producer but the only colours to steer clear of it seems are anything in brown apologies to anyone who has chosen B just imho. 😳

Very nice indeed, I thought I was blowing the budget on mine but you Sir, are doing it in style.

What about white dials? They look nice.

Nice spec... only change I would make is the addition of PTV .... its a turbo after all! ..... and I'm not a fan of the Pano roof adds a lot of weight in all the wrong places!
