    Re: New Cayenne - first impressions from Geneva (Wonderbar)

    1. Boxster Spyder: I like the concept behind it, I don't like how it looks. Like some aftermarket crap. Horrible. Wait for another one to two years until the Boxster is "outdated" and you'll understand what I mean.

    2. it doesn't make sense to exchange the X5 M for a Cayenne Turbo. My whole "strategy" behind getting the X5 M, since I already knew the specs for the Cayenne Turbo before I ordered the X5 M, was to keep the X5 M for three years and maybe to go for a Cayenne Turbo S or Turbo S facelift. Not sure how this is going to work out for me but as much as I like the new Cayenne Turbo, I just can't see myself to pay a premium just for looks (which actually are counter productive in Germany) and the brand name. The X5 M is my family car, so I'm actually happy it doesn't attract that much attention.

    Re: New Cayenne - first impressions from Geneva (Wonderbar)

    Really? That is really nice. Reminds me of the carbon black by BMW. I thought the dark blue metallic is more like the old 996 dark blue colour (not sure what it's called).

    Thanks. Midnight blue is what I was referring to. Looks like this new dark blue is nothing like it. Looks stunning.

    Re: New Cayenne - first impressions from Geneva (Wonderbar)

    I had a midnight blue 996TT, and also saw the new dark metallic blue on the new Cayenne Turbo in Geneva.  The Cayenne dark metallic has more blue in it than the midnight blue (which seemed almost to have more black).  Both colors are nice, but on reflection I prefer the new dark metallic...

    Thanks Wonderbar.  My cousing had the 996cab in midnight blue so I am familiar with the colour.  I think I like the new dark blue metallic.  What about Umber?  Has anyone seen a picture of it?  And also umber interior?  Choosing colours is always the hardest part of buying a car for me!

    Saw the Umber interior last week and thought it looked great. I was going to order espresso but umber looks just as good and costs £1000 less here in the UK.
