The agate grey looks almost greenish. very unappealing.

And the silver is just boring.

Thanks for the input. I would have preferred a darker brown actually but I'll hold my opinion until I see it in person. What did you pair it with on the exterior of your Cayenne? Does the Espresso look better?

That's because it's Aventurine Green.

I do like Dolomite Silver....Saffron Yellow is probably going to be a PTS color along with Oslo Blue.

My Cayenne is the pure non-metallic white. So is the Carrera and BMW. My wife likes white. 🙂. Espresso does not look "better" just darker. Many first mistake it for black. Truffle is very nice in my opinion. I'm glad I chose it. Dark blue and Truffle would be a very nice combo.

Interesting. I'm planning on pairing it with Agate Grey, and if it looks anything like the configurator rendering, that's a great combo!

I hadn't realized the 992 has a front camera, but I see it in the pics. Great addition.

Only rear camera is standard.
360 and ACC are optional

Truffle looks good with Agate Gray, Black and dark blue.

I'm in the UK and just specced a new 992 a few days ago.Interestingly rear camera is indeed standard on the 992 Cabriolet but a cost option on the Coupe.My SA wasn't aware until i pointed it out to him.!

I believe that was the same in the US before back up cameras became mandatory. The reason is the lack of visibility in the cabriolet.

one thing that really bothered me after sitting in it is that you can't see the far right or far left dials. the steering wheel blocks them. and this is not just applicable to long-armed, tall folks like me who sit far from the steering wheel. the honorable short-armed Chris Harris said the exact same thing in his review. It is a bizarre design choice (among other bizarre design choices for this gen).
