Placed your Macan EV order? Post your configuration! 🙋🏻‍♂️

My artist wife taught me something many decades ago, that two colors that are a little bit off clash. “They often create discomfort.” Ever hang a painting that ended up just a little lower or higher than the another one? Did you not move one to make them equal? Sure if you have them offset a deliberate and non-minimal amount they work well at different heights, but not if they are too close — for that will look like you made a mistake.

Ever seen a car with two not-to-different reds?

My opinion is that unless you have put side by side the two different grays, I would encourage you to do so first or choose another body or wheel color so that what you end up with is not uncomfortably too close to each other but looking like a mistake. Again, JMO.

I agree with you and maddoc, this config with two different grays is a risk. I'll visit local stealership tomorrow, they have samples of all colors and materials in the store so I can see how they work together. I made a 'safe' alternative setup with Macan S rims and offroad design painted as body color: http://www.porsche-code.com/PSVE9QZ0

Some other brands limits your choices to make untasty mixed colors, but with Porsche configurator you are on your own

I confugured my 4S with Volcano Grey Metallic in exterior color and:
Exterior Mirrors Painted in High Gloss Black
Window Trim in High Gloss Black
Door Handles in High Gloss Black
Side Blades in High Gloss Black

I think the contrast will be good, but now I'm thinking maybe not ....

IMO a very good looking car you configured.

High gloss black will work well with this grey.

I'm wondering exactly the same regarding the wheels... I changed my build and my latest config is: https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PS81CKM7

Called dealer and I heard Offroad wheels cut 30 km from range I chose Macan S rims very quickly.

To see the autonomy you can click on technical data.
In the Portuguese simulator it shows the autonomy and adjusts to your configuration.
I already looked in the US configurator and that info is missing

Thanks nalves, this is very useful!

Would slate grey neo exterior work well with night green interior? I'm looking to add some color inside to avoid the overly dark full black, but all other options are so bright (chalk, red, etc.). Night green seems to add some color yet remains discreet.

Impossible to say without seeing, SGN seems to have slightly different tone depending on lighting https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/slate-grey-neo-versus-ice-grey-metallic.16985/page-3

I've decided to go with slate grey neo exterior and bramble interior!

I saw bramble interior in a black Cayenne today and it's much darker color than in the configurator and it really makes the interior more luxurious than full black.

Looks great! I particularly like the blacked-out look and the red seat belts!

I'm considering adding the ridiculously overpriced option to color the Sports Chrono/Compass red to match the seat belts.

Seems really nice combination!

I really like the colored chrono but I went with the even more wildly priced PD clock that has no color options. But red is very cool
