All- Exclusive Cayenne diesel
My weak dissenting voice says the Black wheels look WAY better on a Black car than on a White. Was surprised that they looked that good. Certainly solve the brake dust issue too.
Does the steering wheel have wood accents?

Hi Guys!
First of all, thank you very much for sharing your opinions, I'm astonished by the fact that so many of you appreciate it. Thank you.
Secondly, I can see that most of you fancy the interior, which is one of my favourite parts of the car as well, because it's outside the normal patterns and usual colour combinations that they offer.
Regarding the black wheels, this was my option as the sports tailpipes, black headlights/tailights/sportdesign package and exclusive interior just completes the look of the car. I wouldn't have gone for any other wheels than these, and in my opinion they are a perfect fit with the overall aspect of the car.
I have already received the new winter wheels for it, however they are matt black and I will paint them gloss black. If you have any other ideas, after I post some photos with them on the car, maybe you can help choosing a colour combination or advice if i should paint them gloss black or just leave them as they are.
These are the winter wheels

However, now I have just found these ones (BBS F1 CH-R 20''), and I'm thinking of returning the OZ ones :

So, if you may, tell me your opinion on this matter. Pics are coming up tonight or early tomorrow with the new winter wheels on the actual car.
I want to mention as well that I am in discussions with TechArt Germany for some modifications, and I wonder if you have any ideas.
Again, thank you very much guys for all your opinions, I'm waiting for more and hopefully we can make this baby even more gorgeous in the near future with some tuning parts

Gotta love a guy who specs out his vehicle the way HE wants it and not the way anyone else would like to see it done - I wholeheartedly respect that and that's exactly the way to do it. I'm the same way and I always say unless you're buying the car for someone else, set it up the way YOU like it! If everyone had the exact same taste all the cars on the road would look exactly the same!
Regarding your winter choices, I definitely like the BBS you chose much better than the OZ wheels. IMHO the OZ wheels look much too busy for my taste. Kind of ironic though, when I looked at the BBS CH-R wheel the first thought that came to my mind was "oh no!, I don't like the classic BBS mesh wheel look at all; I don't know if I should comment on that!". But, then I looked at it a bit more closely and for the first time ever looking at a classic BBS wheel I realized that this particular version looks really good - even in black! In fact, the more I look at it the more I think the BBS wheels should be your summer wheels! I love the concavity, the white BBS center cap, and especially the white "MOTORSPORT" lettering around the hub. With your black/white interior I think these wheels would be a perfect match and would look fantastic on your car! In fact, I think they look like they were made exclusively for your car! Lemme guess though, if you got them you wouldn't like the white BBS and "MOTORSPORT" lettering and you'd change that, would you?
The concavity and that small amount of white contrast the letters provide would be just enough, I think, to keep them from "disappearing" when you look at the car or take pictures of it. The amazing thing is that I don't like black wheels and I especially don't like the classic BBS styling. This wheel has both in spades and I'd actually consider these for myself if I had the right color vehicle!!!!
Anyway - just my opinion again of course, you stick to whatever gets your heart all aflutter....
Edit: Oh, regarding opinions on other mods (you mentioned TechArt), geez, there really isn't much more I'd do in addition to what you already have planned (gauges, CF grab handles, etc.) - I'm 100% with you on those mods. The only other things I might do are maybe get a nice, well-integrated and stealthy radar/laser detector setup and perhaps really nice floor/trunk mats and then I'd call it done. I'd maybe add some paint protection too (clear film) if you haven't done that already but that's probably about it. I've been in the position before where I was so into modding my vehicle that I went overboard and the end result was just too far from stock to really look well put together and since then I told myself that I'd keep mods to a minimum from this point forward. Your car is so great looking just the way it is I'd hate to see (and don't see the need) too much more of it being changed...

I absolutely love it!! Great build.
Can you tell me if you took the pictures with air suspension level in the middle? (Normal Height) I am trying to figure out if the SportDesign kit lowers the stance of the Cayenne.
Thanks
OTH, strange you have the aluminum rear trim in a black cayenne optioned with the black out window trim. it should be shiny black by defect.
Pretty easy swap though.
