Wow! The lighting sure makes a big difference in the perceived color of the car.
Great to see a Macan in a unique color. Enjoy it!

Very nice, unique for sure! I like the way you also brought some of the UV color to the interior with the matching trim. Well done!

i appreciate all the comments. maybe i should start looking into acquiring a Barney stuffed animal for the back seat

when the wife said she wanted fun and colorful, i said fine - i'm going to get you a car that looks like a Skittle.

neither of us liked Racing Yellow, we felt Guards Red was too common. she vetoed Viper Green, which was my first choice. Porsche vetoed Gulf Orange. UV was the last option and ended up the one we liked the most!

Fantastic! Kuddos to your wife for not being shy of colorful cars unlike so many I've heard who only want grays or silvers. I'm surprised you omitted the sport mirrors as all PTS Macans I've seen have them. Everything on the inside and outside makes it a CUV version of a GT3.

i got a chance to take it on a 200 mile drive yesterday. the car is definitely down on power vs her previous Turbo, but looks so much better with the different wheels, stance and interior. i'll keep it stock until after break in, and if still not satisfied, will start exploring some tune options.

re: the sportdesign mirrors, we were both kind of ambivalent on the option and honestly ended up forgetting about them when we put in the final build. i had a slight preference for them, and they're not an expensive option either, but i guess i didn't care enough to remember to tick the box. guess i could add them later - suncoast has them for $420-ish

why hello my Skittles brethren!! so now i had to go back into your post history to see "what could have been" for me, and discovered your ED pics. your viper green looks amazing! i felt a twinge of regret.

anyway it's good to see we have lime and grape covered...wonder if there are any lemons running around?

I had seen this plate frame previously when searching for quality carbon fiber frames for my GTS, and it came to mind when I saw yours. Looks to be the perfect compliment to your GTS, like it was custom made for it.

Post some pics when it arrives!
