New GTS build - do colors clash?

So my 2018 Macan S is at the dealership (dreaded transfer case - at least it's under warranty) and they gave me 2023 Cayenne Platinum Edition as a loaner. I'm really enjoying the black/bordeaux red leather interior. I've been considering upgrading to a GTS anyways, and I built the one below. My Macan is volcano grey and I wanted something a little less conservative this time around (probably a green, blue or red) and really like the copper ruby metallic.

I'm not good with color matching so... do people think the exterior copper ruby metallic clashes with the bordeaux red interior?

I'm also debating PTV+ and sports chrono, but I'm not going to track this so not sure either are worth it. I think PTV+ may be helpful in snow but I currently live in Southern California.

I don’t think they compliment each other. Personally I think it makes sense to choose between a bolder exterior color or interior color, not both. I like the CRM as it’s a newer color for the Macan so it stands out more, without being over the top. And people look more at the exterior. I’d go black or gray probably for the interior.

But at the end of the day, all that matters is what you like. You are driving it, you are paying a significant amount, so get what you want.

Light interior is nice in not getting as hot in the sun, and if you prefer an overall brighter cabin, the positives end there. The are subject to emphasizing glare (Porsche has at least made the upper surfaces dark), murder to keep clean and show wear much more dramatically. Black is boring, but the right choice here. As someone mentioned you could add the deviated stitching in Chalk, but it’s hard to justify 5k for stitching in a Macan, though it does look great.
