Seems likely that could be my Viper Green RS sitting there - supposed to get the decals tomorrow (hence no hood sticker yet).

Blue Flame:

Thank you so much for posting these photos.

***

Questions for you:

a) Did you ask Porssche reps the exterior colors of these two cars?
Need to confirm to avoid just speculation & guesses!







***

B) What is the deal on the 'Acid Green' deviating stitching
& painted vents on that Cayenne? That is not the old
2014 'Peridot GTS' edition, correct?



***

C) Is this some unique hue 'Leather-to-Sample' interior?




Or is the color slightly off in that particular photo you took & this is
actually
'Graphite Blue' leather interior?



****

Saludos,
Eduardo

Presently in Austin (getting ready for Jack McCall's West Texas Porsche Tour)

Hi Eduardo,

als you know, taking photos at the factory is not that easy - these are only snapshots.
We did not ask about the color-names.

The acid green stitching is from the PORSCHE-Shuttle, a new Cayenne Hybrid with tons of Exclusive extras.

The blue leather interior was at the Exclusive-Stand at the collection-hall. I have never Seen this leather before. The place used to be the 918-Showroom.

The orange 991 was standing at the OPC Stuttgart next to the museum. The color is "Gulforange".

I will be there again in April, if you need the names of the other colors.

That green suits the Cayenne perfectly. Would be interested in knowing the color as well.

Daniel, you were correct, the orange sample on the top row center was indeed "Gulf Orange". Spoke with Stuart Drummond earlier today from Pfaff who really knows his stuff on PTS, etc confirmed it. Had a great chat with him about some of the other PTS colours also.

Thanks bronson7, I appreciate you following up on that and confirming with Stuart!

Stone grey is very nice. It's just a tad darker and more saturated (green/yellow) than fashion grey. I think it is also relatively close to this Singer "New York" colour which I think looks absolutely awesome!

Thoughts compadres????
From my eyes, it looks like the green one also has the black bi-xenons, not the black LEDs.

Hi Eduardo,

during the Factory collection, I visited again the Exclusive room. The name of the Macan-Green is Malachitgrünmetallik.

And something new for you - during the delivery of my GT-Spyder they placed a "Olympiablau" GT3 RS next to my car.
