Consider that the tan is so much lighter, and is a major contrast to the navy. The sea blue is a much more RICH and SHARP looking combo...wouldn't you say? Also, no need to worry about constant marking and/or stains. This sea blue interior screams class. Am now considering the Cayenne S with Palm interior and exterior with burr wood, retracting roof, 20" wheels. Any thoughts?

So, everyone seems to think the clear side markers are a must? I agree they look nice, but not necessarily "nicer"... am I missing something? Also, no question if the car were red, those orange markers would HAVE to go, but with Midnight Blue? Why fix what's not broken is what I say, but any insight as to why they would look better with clears, would love to hear it....

Thanks!

galigaga - Check out these pics... first one is one of Doug's from above and... second one is another Midnight blue (but with tan interior) Straight up comparison of clear versus orange side markers. You be the judge!

BTW, if you make the "wrong choice" (i.e. orange), we'll hunt you down and do a night time "stealth" mod and put green bulbs in your orange markers!

Thanks for the thoughts on the Blue/Blue; you really seem to like it too!

On the Cayenne, is the Palm an exterior color? I don't see it on the configurator, only as a leather option.

Doug,

Congratulations on the new car. It's gorgeous! I like the color combination.
