No, I haven't. Here you go...

Lovely... I really like the pop of colour with the seatbelts. I could easily make my way towards a Turbo price point by adding all the extras! Thanks for everyone for advice on here, it really helps to give real world opinion to counter the internet noise.

Hi everyone

I wanted to share the configuration of my future Cayenne Turbo Electric, which I ordered at the end of January.

Here’s my build:
https://porsche-code.com/PTSE8524

I’m based in France and I must say… I went through thousands of combinations before finally settling on this one

After a lot of hesitation, I chose Vanadium Grey with the Turbonite wheels. I was looking for something elegant, modern and a bit distinctive without being too flashy.

The final validation with Porsche is scheduled for February 23rd, so I’d really appreciate your thoughts before it becomes official!

What do you think about the spec? Would you change anything?

Looking forward to your feedback

Colour and gloss black SportsDesign look about right to me.

Turbonite window surrounds and wheels - not so much to be honest (sorry).

Quite like the black / magnesium grey interior (used to black / crayon) but all black is fine.

Panoramic roof + rails - remember that you can't add roof bars if no rails if that's a consideration. Not sure if you get the sunblind either (normally you expect so). Worth checking both?

Heated windscreen (depending on winters but I find it really useful and with the ability to preheat probably overkill).

Passenger screen I would personally skip.

...otherwise NICE!

Throb, I really like the exact wheels you chose. Nice configuration

La couleur et le noir brillant du design SportsDesign me semblent tout à fait approprié.

Entourages de fenêtres et jantes Turbonite - pas tellement pour être honnête (désolé).

J'aime bien l'intérieur noir/gris magnésium (j'avais l'habitude du noir/crayon), mais le noir intégral me convient aussi.

Toit panoramique + barres de toit : attention, sans barres de toit, il est impossible d'ajouter des barres de toit. Je ne sais pas si le pare-soleil est inclus (normalement, il l'est). Il vaut mieux vérifier les deux options.

Pare-brise chauffant (selon les hivers, mais je trouve cela vraiment utile et la possibilité de préchauffer est probablement superflue).

Personnellement, je zapperais l'écran passager.

...sinon, c'est super !

Merci pour vos commentaires, W1NGE

Quant à la combinaison Gris Vanadium + Turbonite, j'avoue avoir eu un véritable coup de cœur. J'ai récemment vu la 911 Turbo S présentée avec cette configuration et je l'ai trouvée absolument sublime. Elle m'a vraiment marqué. Je trouve qu'elle donne à la voiture une allure très moderne, un peu différente sans être extravagante. Et la Turbonite à la lumière… c'est tout simplement magnifique.

Concernant l'écran passager, je comprends tout à fait que cela puisse paraître gadget. Honnêtement, je sais que ce n'est pas vraiment nécessaire.

Visuellement, je trouve que l'écran équilibre bien le tableau de bord. Sans lui, ce grand panneau noir côté passager paraissait un peu vide et manquait de raffinement. Avec l'écran, l'habitacle est plus abouti et plus technologique.

Merci pour l'info concernant les barres de toit, je vérifierai ça avant de confirmer définitivement.

My build. Currently told it will be a Jan 2027 delivery. Really hoping that comes in a bit when the dealers get their allocation. Lease deal through work so might have to wait for paying customers to get their orders first.

What a Beauty! What a powerful Beast! First two options I opened up were your Madiera Gold and the 21’ wheels (identical to what I have selected). I also concur with your RWS selection.

It is going to be so much fun to drive; hell, even jiust to stand back and look at it. I hope your timing works out just what are wanting.

This is my current build. Am I missing something important? Am I getting something I really shouldn't?

Not sure you need to pay extra for High Gloss Black door handles when they are already the same color as the car - Chromite Black Metallic - appreciate the other exterior items (some standard) which are in High Gloss Black and you may have wanted to match.

Personal choice but the wheels don't look right to me and really don't like the gloss black finish.

Black interior - too much black for my taste (I had a Taycan GTS ST in Jet Black Metallic with black / anthracite Spyders but kept the interior light - two tone crayon / black.

Seats - the headrests aren't adjustable in the Sport versions but I think they are with the 14-way Comfort ones - check with your dealer if this is important to you (same in Taycan so I opted for Comfort).

gasman93, clearly you like the all black look, one that many call a “murdered” vehicle. If that is what you like as it appears, you have done an excellent job in creating exactly that. Might you consider a couple of lighter accents to give you car what I would call a two-dimensional look. If so my recommendations, for I too am choosing the exact wheels as you but not spending the $1,300 to have them painted black, and as W1NGE suggested deleted the black door handles? I found go further and also delete the black window trim and the exterior mirror in exterior color, you have saved over $2,700 and gotten a full black exterior as shown below.

Similarly for the inside, might you consider instead of “black for everything” one or two slighter lighter accents such as choosing thethe pure black leather instead get the black leather with turbonite accent stitching and the fee turbonite seat belts (those interior changes not costing anything)? If you wish to see how the black leather with turbonite accents would like if you have not already seen that look, there is this thread: https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/-interior-black-only-photos-thread.19017/

Again just suggestions as you asked. As for where you might choose to spend some or all of the now left over $2,700, never once have I been on the configurator for any model Porsche without having some additional options I wish I could have comfortably afforded. Best of luck whichever way you go, for whether you make even one suggested change or none, you are going to have one amazing rocket ship of fun.

After much deliberation: https://porsche-code.com/PTQBXLC1

Some of the logic...

Exterior Colour:
Pale Blue Metallic (pains me to pay £3k for paint) but i find Vanadium a bit dull and predictable. Mystic, bit washed out. Napali, too blue (my VW Transporter is very similar) Monteverde, a close second choice but also extra £3k. Algarve, too dark, almost black. Remaing colours i wouldnt even consider. 99% i'll be adding Stealth PPF too.

Interior: Black/Chalk Beige. Have all Black Race-Tex in Taycan GTS. Need a change.
Black/Magnesium is a serious contender too. Need to see these in the flesh first.
Addition of Race-Tex Grab Handles. This changes the coloiur from beige to black, reducing the overall beige slightly. Ties in with Race-Tex headlining and B/C Pillar.

Wheels:
Love the Sport Techno Design. Biggest and widest Wheels available. Adds some millimeters to the overall width of the back end. Fan of Turbonite in general. I'm paying the Turbo big bucks, i want extra Turbonite. Same logic with the window trims

No interest in Pano Roofs. Never have.

Active Ride:
All the reviews speak very highly of it. I'll want to try it first but also kinda feel like it might be expected on the Turbo? (moronically i spec cars with the next owner in mind too)

Rear Axle Steering:
No real downsides to having it (£1,389 of course) but Very useful in few specific driving scenarios i encounter.

Four Zone Climate:
Another addition based on what i feel is "expected" in a car of this value. Didn't bother in the Taycan. Rare that i have rear passengers. But as a % of the overall cost it makes the rear feel a little more luxury.

With it being electric and I hope having the option of running the climate control from the app could you remove the heated windscreen? Only a drop in the ocean of the total price I know, but might free up another option?

Pale blue metallic is a beautiful colour but I think it works best with glossy black trim. Monteverde works better with Turbonite IMHO. I would use black for interior. Different seat design unique to Turbo and you get some Turbonite.

Didn't spec it, as you said, somewhat pointless. In terms of resell value, I would consider panoramic roof and rear seat heating.
