I have a couple of weeks until build lock for my new CT4s and am torn between Chalk/Crayon and Ice Grey.

Currently, I am leaning towards Chalk, and with black door handles. I feel this would match the gloss black base mirrors, the black off road package, and the black roof bars I spec'ed. There are many pictures of beautiful cars in this thread, but no one went with the black door handles.

Has anyone gone with the black door handles on a Chalk/Crayon Taycan? Pictures? Any consensus either way? In the configurator it looks good, but always hard to tell in reality.

I appreciate the feedback since is one of the only details I am unsure about

I think the black door handles look awesome in the configurator with Chalk with the off-road package, roof rack and black gloss CT wheels. It makes it look much more sporty. I was considering using the black handles in my Chalk build but wanted a more clean and elegant look so didn't do the off road package or the black door handles. I am doing the roof rack and the gloss black CT wheels though. I asked 2 male friends and they liked the black door handles better for the sportier look too. I hope that helps!

Pam, thank you for the feedback. If I go Chalk I will go with the black door handles.

Now I just need to decide between Chalk and the Ice Grey. I have another couple of weeks before Porsche locks my configuration, so I am going to have to make an "executive" decision at some point.

Have you seen Ice Grey in person? :)

Yay! Personally, I went with Chalk because it is more unique, but either way it will look great.

I have not. Wish I could, but inventory Taycan's are non-existent in the greater Denver area. I have yet to see a Taycan in Chalk either. I have only seen a Cayenne in Chalk and it had the black door handles. I thought it looked slick, so it would nice on a Taycan as well.

The trouble with supply chain issues, and cars not being around as much, means that you have to almost guess when you custom order.

I saw chalk and ice gray parked together before I decided my color. To be honest with you ice gray looks really close to more like white (different shade of white) or bright silver under bright sunlight. If you ask anyone what the color looks like... I can guarantee most people will tell you "white" until you show them what the real Taycan white is.

I personally think chalk is elegant. It is not a "look at me" color but unique enough to stand out. My Porsche ppl all said Chalk looks stunning and sophisticated. :)

thanks for the link! And, thank goodness for being able to scroll about in Youtube videos since I skipped to the couple of parts to where I could see the car.

I think that settles it! Appreciate the help everyone!
Will you go for the black handles?

I will. I am going to do Chalk, with the black door handles, the power charging door, gloss black for the off road package, and the gloss black rear view mirror.

It should contrast nicely with Chalk color on the side of the car.

Nice.

I have a chalk Turbo ST on order, without power charging or off road package to match too….hmmm…. I will have black wheels and trim though.

I have a black / Black GTS on order, but may change to a chalk / red. I saw only black and white Taycan in person.

Chalk is still my favourite…but you know, happy wife, happy life….that’s why I have coffee-beige….which looks much better in real life than in configurator.
