Does anyone have an idea of how ice grey metallic could look in a picture? Porsche's renders don't look like the colors face to face in my experience.

Hi Austin_Yeah Baby,
I just wanted to thank you for posting the colors that will be available with next year's model. I deferred my order (days to spare) until next year so I can get Cherry. You saved me much angst had I seen the Cherry only after I was already locked in. Much appreciated.

You got that right.........the CG'd representations of the colors on the configurator are absolutely terrible.
Do not rely on them.

Different areas of the website seem to do better... which is odd. I ordered my Turbo with Black and Chalk interior. A couple of months later I'm on the configurator and the Chalk interior was damn near beige. I about spit out my lunch. I later went back to Porsche USA and it was fine... I had managed to either be in another geo or routed to a different version of the configurator. For a day or two I was sweating b/c I did NOT want a beige interior.

Some of the colors at least exist on current production vehicles, making a google search easy, but ice grey is as far as I can tell, completely new.

I tip would be......for another look at any colors your are considering for Tay......to pull up the config pages for other Pcar models and select the color. Dolomite Silver for instance is totally different in the regular 911 pages.

I have seen (almost) all the current colors face to face, but if my dealer doesn't get some samples in of the new ones, I would be hesitant about ordering a new color I have no idea how will look on the car. I guess we will see what happens, can't do much anyway until the 2021 configurator is up for Norway.

Thanks @Austin_yeahbaby for posting the full range of colours

Being completely biased, Dolomite Silver is still as sharp as a new school pencil :)

With a Chalk 911 4S in my stable, I am partial to the color. I get comments on it all the time.
I must admit the Crayon turned my head!
But then so did the Cherry! Dang!
Too many great colors (except for maybe Frozenberry).
Glad I don't have to decide for quite a while.

Cheers
Do you think chalk/ crayon would suit the Taycan? I think it looks great on the 911 as it adds a cool classic twist, but not sure it would work on the Taycan? What actual base colour is crayon?

Agree. - is it more silver as the Dolomite Silver has a lot of blue hue in it in the light, which put me off that colour

It looks like it somewhere between Carrara white and dolomite silver, but it is impossible to tell anything like the hue from the render. I seem to have chosen crayon after a lot of deliberation.

I know what you mean, at least Crayon is a known colour you can compare on other Porsche’s. So far I am sticking with the Carrera White.

Crayon would have been my first choose but now I’m doubting how it will suit the car (Porsche configuration doesn’t help at all either!)
