i was sooooo confused whether to go with Algarve blue or Quartz grey
while quartiz grey is the safest to go with and easiest to resell //
artic grey didn't click with me at all , i feel it is a lost soul
finally placed my order with Algarve blue ... i think it is much a life and positive :-)

that is a loaded build - you’ll love it. To answer your question the film is the clear matte PPF from Xpel called Stealth. I was on the fence on whether to use the matte look or keep just regular gloss PPF but it worked out and I get compliments often on it. Really I don’t think you can go wrong either way. Algarve is such an interesting color matte or gloss.

I was going with the Quartzite Grey as well until I walked into the dealership and seen the Algarve blue
in-person. It spoke to my soul it was just glistening under the showroom lights like a VVS1 D color diamond. It was So beautiful in the light, it was my first time seeing it up close . I've seen it at night before and it looks black. I like black overall but I had 2 black Gts 22/23 and they don't have gloss black anymore.I want a change anyway. Here my current build and my 23 https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PSSGRM63

Share your build please

Nothing wrong with black wheels, have them on my Quartzite Grey GTS. It is fun playing with all the options and configurations.

With a ceramic coating it is ~9,000-9,500 without it’s like 7,500 I think. I got mine with the coating and it’s super easy to clean with a waterless wash

Thank you!!
I do like that you don't see many examples of the color. In fact, I don't recall seeing another.

I appreciate the info, I'm familiar with the Ceramic coating I had that GTS and it worked wonders. I don't know if I can swing that 10k right after my purchase so I might have to stay in my lane...I have the GTS and you TGT LOL, I'm thankful to be part of the conversation. Nice background BTW. Keep doing big things!

Took delivery of Algarve Blue Cayenne S six months ago, and have been extremely happy with the color selection.

How do you like the PCCB's mafpolo? I have a 2025 Cayenne Coupe on order and am debating spec'ing them - primarily to keep the brake dust down.

Thanks for the kind words. My mantra is to die as slowly as possible.
