Looks great. I'll say one thing, the best color selections they've ever offered I think. Even have Lizard too.

Dolomite Silver looks good too but I preferred GT Silver.

Yes yes absolutely! it looks like a small family could live inside one of those rims.

I like Lizzard a lot. But how will I like it in 4 years of ownership? And, how will I like all the attention, I'm sure it will garner, when out & about?? These questions give me pause.

How does Dolomite compare to silvers of past? More like the classic silver Artic? Or more like the blue-ish silvers of Polor and Rhodium?

Good question on Dolomite. Hopefully a non-blueish Silver.

Squires, The green in your pics looks much lighter than that on the configurator. Are your photos a pretty accurate representation of the color?

To me it seems a rhodium 2.0! But let hear the feedback from who saw it for real! 😲

it’s a lot lighter than that on the configurator I was surprise too. Those pics I took they were straight pure from my iPhone ...no filtered or edit

Yep, it's a very pale silver. Plenty of Dolonite Silver Panamera pictures available and perhaps even one in DS at your local dealer? I like it. Most will prefer GT Silver is my guess, it's a 'richer' looking silver.

GT Silver is still the best choice of silver in my eye hand down

Thanks. I'm seriously considering that color for my order, and I like the lighter version. I think it will look great with a slate grey interior.

any thoughts on the sport Tex and the right trim to match? Looks fantastic in pictures. Aventurine+fuchs +sport tex checkered + wood is a cool retro idea. Not a fan of wood tho... wonder if the sport Tex needs a less busy trim (wood, leather, aluminum) vs the standard look or carbon fiber? Any pics of sport Tex with various trims?

I bet the longer front hood with creases are going to change opinions on this car over time, based on the last pic you posted above.

thank you!
