For some reason those satin black wheels just don't look good to me in pictures. Maybe it's just me, but it would also be interesting to see them in person. I think the front looks great, but I wish the back had something else to make it a little more aggressive looking. I know the Cayenne GTS has a little roof spoiler or something to give it a little more aggressive look. With that being said, love the car overall, I think both the S and the Turbo drive fantastic, and I am definitely considering the GTS in the near future.

I wasn't sold on the satin black wheels from the pictures, but saw them in person on a Cayenne and they look good enough that I changed my order to include them.

I totally agree. I've gone back on my build to Rhodium Silver, Spyder wheels (silver/black) and the GTS leather / alcantera interior. I have another month before I fully lock in...

Don't be timid. Order Carmine Red paint. You know you want to!

Frankly, other than Carmine Red, all the Macan colours are pretty dull and boring.

Have recently taken a liking to Graphite Blue Metallic and it would be interesting to see what that looked like on the Macan.

I agree, CarManDSL!

Living in British Columbia, too, you must find it depressing during the 8+ months of grey rainy season to see that the most sold car colors are shades of grey/white/black. Not only is that completely boring, some of these drivers are just downright unsafe driving around without turning on their headlights.

I have always enjoyed deep, rich hues, untainted by chrome if possible. It might be inappropriate for a German company to offer British Racing Green, but I hope that green makes a comeback!

Yes, silver, grey and even white cars tend to disappear during dusk hours.

But how about Sapphire Blue? That's not any of those colors and quite nice. Much more subdued compared to red.
