I’m considering ordering the above in 4S guise and I’m drawn to Mamba Green Metallic, the other colours look a bit ‘meh’ to me, my wife doesn’t like the green and thinks it will be difficult to sell on. I’m not convinced on the panoramic roof as it’s the same as on my Taycan (fixed) and I think a metal roof looks better from outside, so maybe have the chalk beige interior to lighten it up. Thoughts please….

Wouldn’t be my choice, and if I was going to go green exterior I’d have black brake callipers and a black interior (possible with green stitching). Plus the panoramic roof!

It will certainly appeal to some though, and you should buy for yourself, not the next owner.

We’ve had our mamba green CT since October and it always gets a positive reaction (even with a Bordeaux red interior)

I really like that colour.

Looking at the photo of the rear I’ve now got a vision of a VW Scirocco, which oddly I hate!

Yours looks great though and I think you’ve sold it to me!

I tend to agree with your wife.

Pano roof is a must for me - rear will be used a lot on mine, and how it lightens up the interior is more important than any aesthetic on the outside (the vague twin bubble if nice enough but not a big enough feature for me).

I'd also get black window surrounds etc on that colour (pretty much any colour...silver windows look a bit old fashioned on sportier cars IMO).

I'm in the same boat trying to decide whether I want Gentian Blue or Mamba Green.

With the spec from the configurator images I think upgrading the wheels would make a bigger difference than any colour though...

Currently in the process of deciding whether to choose a Taycan 4S Sport Turismo via Salary Sacrifice through work.

From the metallic paint choices, I keep coming back to Gentian Blue,

Still can’t decide between very boring Volcano Grey or slightly boring Gentian blue for my ST GTS.

Presumably the last two pictures are Gentian Blue, which actually look a slightly purple colour im the pictures - is that my screen or how it appears in the real world? Looks nice!

Interesting comment on the alloys, I selected 19” as thought they’d be a better ride and should help reduce the issues some owners have experienced with the larger alloys and poor roads.

I’ve got the turbo aero’s on my current car and love them. Think they looks pretty good with Mamba Green too…
