Yachting Blue Metallic

I vote for yachting blue metallic, but, then again, I'm biased, because that's what I ended up buying. When I was initially shopping for my PTT I was dead set on black, either standard or basalt metallic. I wasn't even considering other colors. My view was further entrenched after talking with a dealer in TX who said essentially that no one buys anything but black, white or silver in a Panamera, as those are the only colors that hold any value. He was selling a black one, so go figure. I then came across a yachting blue metallic PTT and simply couldn't resist it. It's a versatile color that seems to change its appearance with different lighting - resembling black, grey and a stunning blue at different times. It's easy to keep clean and still looks great between car washes. Black is amazing - don't get me wrong, but I agree that it's tough to keep clean and tends to show swirls and imperfections. I love white cars, but I agree with the comment above that some people may not care for that color given the car's dimensions. As for the silvers (gt silver or platinum), I have a gt silver 911 already, so silver really wasn't on my radar screen.

It is so personal, but I have not seen any Panamera color that I didn't like. My is Agate Grey exterior (goes well with the grey on the turbo II wheels) with Marsala Red interior, custom ordered and got a lot of compliments. The combo was selected base on the other cars I have in the stable.

I still turn my head when I see white ones on the road. Good Luck!!!

Talk about different strokes for different folks! Bottom line: get what you like and makes you feel good about the car.

Shocking that a vascular surgeon would fancy a "blood red" car....

Yachting blue is nice on that car. I went with Rhodium Silver over Espresso. I always thought that silver was boring but the Porsche silver is very nice and IMO it looks great on the Panny. I am very pleased.

i have black on cognac Ptt and it's the first black car i have. i don't usually get black but i think black makes the car looks smaller, with black rims makes it looks even more sleek
