I am thinking about getting a taycan and I cannot decide which color to get. It’s between ice grey or chalk for me. I’m thinking of getting red interior too. Which color do you like better?

I like Chalk a lot but my wife hates it so it's looking like Ice Grey. YMMV

I ordered ice and changed to crayon/ chalk after viewing the paint samples. At the I couldn’t see ice as no cars had been produced at the time. I’ve still not seen ice in the metal, but I’m happy with my choice now my cars arrived.

Seen both in person side-by-side and the Ice Grey looks better IMO. Chalk isn't bad at all, but I'm not a big fan of matte/flat paints.

Funny because I just saw both of them side-by-side and to me, chalk was a clear winner

Each to their own but ice grey looks better to me.

These are the 2 choice colours.

Although can’t beat that Green!!

I was just at the dealership yesterday and they had an Ice grey, chalk and dolomite all next to each other. I went with the intention of getting ice grey for the cross tourismo. I would say its a great color. Ice grey is silver/white with a lot of metallic flakes, almost glitters. so to me it was sharp and with a little bling. chalk was just modern, trendy..flat paint neutral color...nice but not exciting. I picked dolomite. It was classic silver. I thought it had more blue hue but yesterday I didn't see much. so a dolomite CT it is.

Those were the three colors I narrowed it down to. Now I’m wondering if I should go with silver and save the $3K LOL !

I chose to repurpose the paint color money into my electronic gadgets like HUD and night vision.

Make sure you see it in a variety of light. It definitely has a blueish hue that comes off it. Some like it, some don’t.
