Jet Black with Espresso / Cogniac
Thank you for participating in this poll. We very much appreciate all the thoughts/suggestions. Spent quite a bit of time over the past couple of days going over several color combinations for the espresso/cognac color. The umber with that choice of interior colors (brown outside, inside, top and bottom may be too much) will be a brown overdose, Auburn will make it too busy, Sand white would be great but the pepper would be a keeper for us. I would hate to see the paint protection film yellowing over the white color in a few years. That left us with two choices. Jet black metallic and black. Wife wanted black but I went with jet black metallic which of the two blacks would be a little easier to maintain swirl free....well almost swirl free. I even asked my buddy at Metropolitan detail John. He knows a thing or two about paint protection/correction. The only way to keep a black colored car swirl free is to store it in the garage.
My wife and I think the jet black metallic with espresso, cognac would look stunning. I do think most (if not all) of you would agree.

Jet black is nice - a new color and its metallic.
In my opinion, you have picked the best exterior and best interior colors available.

3LX470, thank you for that nice comment. We think so too. I did not know that jet black metallic was a new color which makes it even more appealing to me now that I know that fact. I have decided to go with the stock trim which is a high gloss black. We think that it will provide a good contrast to the two tone brown loaded interior. We thought that all the other wood options would make it too busy.

I agree with having the high glass black trim for the 2-tone leather color scheme.
At the dealer I saw a Panamera Turbo with cognac exterior, with 2-tone brown interior and brown wood. There's a 20K discount on this 150K vehicle.

If black trim was standard on the turbo I might have stayed with it, but since aluminum is standard, I went for the olive wood with the 2 tone leather, seemed to fit between the espresso and cognac nicely.

Manmachine, I think I know that Pana turbo. Is it in Seattle area dealership ? Gammaman, you do know that you can have the black gloss trim replace the standard aluminium on the turbos as a no cost option. If you like the gloss black (which would be great with our two tone choice of colors) you should go for that than the olive.

Too late, I'm locked in with build date of Oct 6th. Will post pix when I get the car. BTW, I think that Pana Turbo you're talking about has olive with 2 tone cognac/cedar, which is much lighter and a completely different look than the espresso/cognac. It also has 11,900 miles which is why they are discounting it that much.

Yes the Panamera was at Barrier Porsche. I was looking for a cognac color and was surprised to see it as an exterior color also. Yes the interior was ceder/cognac, quite different from Cayenne's option, but I got a good idea of what the color is like. With olive wood, the whole car feels too... gold.
As I posted on another forum, umber/tartufo seems a good combination of relatively light coloring.
