I don't think it is

This is my Midnight Blue Cayenne



Even allowing for the fact it's not under bright indoor lights its not that blue/purple.

Looking at the first pic I think it could be Iris Blue - but not so sure from later pics! Look at the paint code and search web for code list.

Check the label in your service book. Should have the paint code.

Agreed, it does look like Iris, though Midnight can look that good under really decent sunlit conditions :

I'd say midnight but there is a sticker on the drivers door shut by the catch that has the colour written on it:

Odd, should be in the service book as part of the sticker that has the option codes on it.

I would think any OPC can tell you from your VIN number. Failing that you can apply for a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity which is about £50 which has all the details....PCGB members can get them free.
