Default Conflicting info on new Cayenne

A few dealers have told me the new facelifted Cayenne will be in showrooms this fall while others have said late next year does anyone have some reliable info on when it should be released? I think dealers in Ohio are lost but just want to make sure. Thanks

I'd love that...then I could be completely color coordinated. Is Guards Red really going to be a new color option--where did you hear that?

Hey Question for the old timers.. On the "build a Porsche" website, you can select a CUSTOM COLOR in metallic or non for the 911.. for like $4500. It would seem to me that if you really wanted a custom color as LTC always say, I'm sure enough $$$ , "zee painterz" can get you it.. although I noticed that on the Cayenne, it has SPECIAL COLORS (dark green yuck) but no CUSTOM COLOR selection menu available.. ANY all knowing PAG paint experts out there? That new guy Larry, does he know?

I think several have/did with the pics! Personally, I've never liked RED cars/trucks. RED is just not a color for a vehicle in Alabama. The rivalry between Bama and Auburn is intense and anything all red is immediately labeled a Bama supporter (I'm ambidextrious as I attended another SEC school). Most "normal" people won't buy a red car because the red (pardon the pun) NECKS buy that color exclusively and then put a roll of toilet paper and box of tide follow by a roll of toilet paper in the back window deck...i.e the BAMA cheer.... ROLL TIDE ROLL. Yes, safe to say I wouldn't want to look like a fire truck OR a "poster child" for what everyone outside Alabama thinks we all are.. REDNECKS!

I can't find Larry so I went and found Wily............

He said to ask your dealer if US Cayennes are eligible for the Exclusive Programme (paint to sample option requested).
Wily and Larry are not really sure if PAG is offering the Exclusive Programme for Cayennes currently.

There is an exclusive programme, includes all the carbon fiber goodies, etc.. it does not include paint to sample cayenne, as the bodies are painted prior to being shipped to Leipzig

Welcome back, Alfie.. long time no post over here in Cayenne world.. So, being the guru that you are.. are you telling us if'n we wanted to have our "own" color it doesn't matter how much money you threw at PAG? Seems silly to me.. they've always kind of geared themselves to customization if you have the $$$.
