I love ice grey on the Taycan. It looks different in different lighting conditions. Ice grey shows off the swoopy curves and details of the car. Also, my last two cars were black on black and I really wanted a change.

I went for Ice Grey Metallic, having never seen it in the flesh. Was really pleased with my choice. It’s a stunning colour. I’ve had a couple of Porsches in the past and always gone for safer colours, so this was me pushing the boat out a bit! Couldn’t bring myself to go for Mamba Green, as this will be mostly driven in London. If i lived in California, or somewhere with more sun, I may have been tempted….

The ice grey does look fabulous, but I don't regret my choice of Gentian.

I would also suggest the electric charger covers. The fins on those in black look great against the grey
I would second this.

I didn't spec them, but you do get dirt through the wing vents when you don't spec them.

In a UK winter with a light colour it may be a PITA keeping it clean.

The electric port covers block the vents.
Marginally less range, and more prone to faults, but I would tick the box if speccing again.

I would disagree. I've always had dark metallics previously but went to ice grey as the black details and panoramic roof makes it look special. I only wish the black trim on the side skirts and chin spoilers was in gloss black. This js my car before pickup if it helps

Your pics are making me SO happy I have an Ice Grey on order!! A subtle and unique color for those with an attention to detail that shows off the lines nicely. I like the black bits on light color like this so much, personally! Beauty!

I currently have a gentian blue and ordered a Cross Turismo....in gentian blue again. I simply love this colour on the Taycan, be it the sedan or the CT.

I had mine ceramic coated and am in Scotland....so plenty of rain! It's been easier keeping it clean compared to my previous car which was Jaguar F Type in a gorgeous Carpathian Grey metallic and also ceramic coated.

It’s been produced already, but think I saw they are available from Suncoast as aftermarket. Love to see pics, and also any more detail on what you like about the look. Thanks for the tip!

I‘ve mostly had dark color cars, but ended up with white for my Taycan, which is not typically a color I gravitate towards when looking at something on the light side (I’ve had GT silver previously). The lighter color shows the lines of the car better to me and I like the light/dark contrast with the wheels and some of the trim pieces. For interior, I went with black, but would have considered any dark color inside. I don’t mind the white/beige combination, but prefer the sportier look of the light/dark.

I am torn between gentian blue and ice grey. I have previously had a similar colour blue car and the wife feels it would remind her of that car whereas ice grey is a far more unique colour. I know that it is personal preference but any comments would be appreciated.
I had GB on order & when saw the Ice Grey in flesh in sunshine was absolutely blown away.
People seem to love the colour & during the sunny days it looks like that the colour is changing.
Zero regrets. Electric port point & side skirts as mentioned by others do make the car look fabulous.
