Gulf Blau Macan GTS

Personality comes standard with any vehicle in the Porsche line-up, but there’s always the opportunity to add even more with Exclusive Manufaktur and Porsche Paint to Sample offering

Exclusive Manufaktur is a special area where vehicles are adjusted to suit a customer’s desires – within parameters. This happens on two levels, with the first being where a sales consultant works hand-in-hand with their customer and specify a car online to suit the customer’s preferences. The other is a more detailed personalisation.

This Macan GTS is such a vehicle. It was detailed through the Exclusive Manufaktur option, so it could be specified with a soft blue exterior colour and a host of appointments that lift it to a new level. There are so many options available in the online Exclusive Manufaktur selection – simply tick the car configurator to style your own unique Porsche.

Here, the Macan GTS was treated to a distinctive soft Gulf Blue paint colour on the outside set off by 21-inch RS Spyder Design wheels in matt black to match the detailed black touches to grille, sides, and rear, where the darkened light pods enrich the lighter blue paint.

Inside, the driver and passengers are enfolded in a mix of leather and Porsche’s exceptional Race-Tex. The driver sits with their hands wrapped around a heated multifunction GT Sports steering wheel in Race-Tex, inlaid in Carbon. Much of the interior is displayed in Race-Tex, including the roof lining, grab handles, and gear selection knob.

Flashes of orange are dotted throughout to add warmth and contrast, featured in the leather sun visors, grab handles, and leather edging on the Carbon-coloured floor mats. Personalised door sill guards were also specified, which are illuminated and in Carbon. Facing the driver is a special compass instrument dial and Sport Chrono stopwatch with instruments in white.

Another stunning example of how easy it can be to personalise a Porsche. •
