I think you will have to wait a few months to see that. Don't think any Carrara White has been built yet, since it is a MY16 colour.

 

Google Cayenne white vs carrara white metallic. Lots of pics.

Carrara is bluer, less yellow. The metallic is well worth the money IMHO.

 

Was looking at some pics, another way to put it is the flat white is a warmer, softer color, less harsh. The metallic is definately cooler with blue undertones as you mentioned. Personally I wouldn't be comfortable ordering Cararra without comparing side by side at the dealer. Here's a couple comparison shots. Cararra Metallic is the color on the Cayman GTS at the bottom. Standard white is the Boxster Spyder. Just by looking at pics I prefer the Standard, it looks more classic Porsche to me, but would need to see for myself in person if I was ordering now.

 

I would caution in the photographs above that the Boxster is illuminated from ceiling lights and sun whilst the Cayman is not.

 

Do a google search and someone did post side by side photos . Keep in mind that the Carrera White is not the same as the older version with the same name .

I am nota fan of the newer white variants from Porsche . The last one was a huge fail called "cream white" .

White is free . Why make life complicated ? No matter what version of white one chooses it will always be vanilla .

 

Thanks for the pointer !

 

here's my order :

What's the avg. discount buying it at SF/Bay Area? 4%?

 

As far as I know 0% is the norm here.

 

Well don't forget that you may be able to negotiate some floor mats!! That is approx an 0.3% discount.

 

Yup. My SA emailed me today that my Macan just arrived at the dealership. I will fly down this weekend to pick it up.

How is your Macan so far?

 

No major issues
Just a fritzy PCM that drives me crazy

Easily the most enjoyable vehicle I've ever owned
You have many, many memorable drives ahead of you

Congrats!

 

Cararra vs White

I've did some picture grabbing of the differences with the new Cararra color in various light conditions on the 911 and looking at the Macan.

Check out the URL because the photo is just a snapshot of the LINK.

This is my Itemtopia App Macan file (I use it for my cars and stuff) and I am now using it to track all the notes before the 2016 Macan arrives. This way, I can remember what I am researching and learning here on this forum. It's a great forum, but this free APP helps me.
