BMW would call it: aubergine (eggplant)

Aubergine is a different shade of purple for Porsche.

I love Ultra Violet but I don't love a $91K base Macan. This makes me want to ask so many questions.

Burmester, 21's, and PTS on a Base, they might have trouble moving this one at MSRP.

I saw that, some odd choices were made, besides the color.

This is a popular GT3 PTS color. I sort of like it on a Macan. Listing does not have the window sticker unfortunately.

I kinda like the color, but for that MSRP it needs to be a GTS

This looks like someone had buyer's remorse and stuck the dealer with a very uniquely optioned car.

I dont think the color is what is going to keep it from selling but the high price for a base will.

Good god, is that how much Macans are now? I have a 2018 UV Macan with 21’s, CF trim, and Burmester….but mine is a GTS. And MSRP was less than $91k

looks great btw!

Same store has an Irish green over beige with nearly identical options. https://www.porschesouthbay.com/new/...ec5d916dc1.htm
They also have a S in PTS Amethyst at $96K MSRP. Looks more like the store GM using up unspoken-for PTS allocations to get some showroom pop which probably makes more sense than a customer gone wild. The rest of their inventory is pretty much all grayscale.
