Yes, you're right, the top picture doesn't look typical. But like a lot of other colours too, it changes a lot with the light. Video looks more like fashion grey to me.

Fashion grey is a classic, elegant color. I don't think those wheels go well on that car at all. Nothing against the wheels, just not a match to my eyes.

You're right, love the Fashion Grey, dislike the wheels.

Daniel, about those stripes: I was back at the Experience Centre today, Panamera was still there but no code for the stripes on the sales sheet. Spoke to a very nice lady who explained that the stripes are not Porsche OEM. They were made by an outside firm on the Centre's request - at one point they were displaying the Pana and the Sport Classic side by side and wanted a uniform look. She said that whilst there was a visible difference between Fashion Grey and Sport Classic Grey paint, the colour of the OEM and aftermarket stripes were identical.

I have the name and contact details of the firm that supplied the stripes.

Nothing guaranteed but I am working on getting you a photo of the 2 cars side by side.

Thanks Puf. That's very helpful info. Please don't go out of your way, but of course I'd love to hear anything more you find out or see any photos you might take. Much appreciated!!

And thanks BBi for the photos of the fashion grey car with bbs wheels!

Default dare I ask

Apologize if was covered on this thread but does anyone know if 3m makes fashion grey wrap? (in their 1080 product)

Or maybe if anyone would know if any of the grey options come close in their offerings?

https://www.fellers.com/fellers-shop...c-slideability

Looks like their satin battleship grey is possibly interesting, if you click on it there are some cars in their gallery and one is a 991gt3 rs car... anyone know the car?




amazing color....

thanks

Thank you... My car is black and keeping it clean is something I am not enjoying. Interior is terracotta which I think could look great with a fashion grey possible wrap. Also it is 77 Champion car of which their press car for this Power kit package from Champion was a "man from chile" beige/grey like color. seen here - http://webgram.co/p/1003578671261644366_11348420/

Just had wheels done and hoping they would flow with the fashion like grey wrap and not have to refinish in a new color of which would go back....

This is a great thread, thanks for starting on such a unique color...

My car below..(now have the Porsche crest caps installed pardon old pic.
