I am not wanting the blue ones, so what does one get in the U.S. for the optional $530 more? Thanks.

The elements inside the daytime running lights are slightly blacker... That's it from my research. Some folk say it's barely noticeable...others can see the slight difference and decide to splurge

iirc originally, there was just a option for non-matrix, and matrix black n blue.
I think the regular matrix is a newer option...
But i don't think i've seen any w/o the Black option,

What you get is Exclusive Manufactur cosmetic treatment of the headlights that demands $530 for the privilege. Specifically, what you see in Blue will be in Black (from picturing stand point), which is plastic surround cosmetic treatment of the DRL lights. Exclusive Manufactur is cosmetic differentiation treatment of things without adding any functional benefits.

That is what I remember too, but I might be mixing up a different model.

Thank you. So far you all have saved me $530, unless someone posts below something that convinces me I should get the black $530 option.

This is a long standing classic Porsche option, but for the ICE cars like original ICE Macan, the difference between the standard (bright chrome inside the light) vs. in Black was dramatic in pictures and real life. This is not the case for very compact LED and DRL only lights in the Macan EV. However, Exclusive Manufactur will take your money for it in a heritage inspired way, as some customers click on these options to differentiate.

Thanks Alex74. Putting the two pictures together, using one of my favorite app “Side By Side,” as close to a comparison picture as possible, as Tacoman said several posts above the $530 black matrix LED option has a slightly darker appearance

The one on the left below is the $530 black option; the one on the right is N/C standard one.
