[Alex74]

Today i saw some amazing cars standing at the dealership in Knokke, Belgium.
A Taycan saloon in pretty pink Rubystone Red and a Taycan CT in Miami Mint Green . For only 9606€ extra.

Here are the pictures. They are lovely in the sun. ?

The first one is Rubystone Red. Quite a famous Porsche color.

The other one appears to be Mint Green.

Thanks for the feedback on the colours name. Never saw it before in Belgium. But i did in Miami, my second home town.

Miami green?

My second town. Reminds me of Miami. Also Curaçao

Rubystone is a rare color indeed. Elicits strong responses. I love it. The more racy the car spec, the better it looks IMO.

Mint green not so much.

If I could get Rubystone past my wife is have it in a heartbeat on a GTS saloon... Although it's probs the £6k+ that wouldn't get past her... ?
I think the green CT looks sick too on a sunny day... ?

Miami green?

Tic Tac Green?

Good source for info on Porsche colors.

I've not seen that green on a Taycan before- very 50's Miami or Riviera. It's another interesting colour that suits black accents and no silver. I've yet to see anything but black Taycans in the wild round here.

Just to be clear, that color is Mint Green. Not to be confused with Miami, which is actually a blue.

In case I have contributed to apparent confusion...my reference to Miami & Riviera was not to Porsche colour names, but to the actual places where light greens and blues are still a common feature on Art Deco style architecture (also on British seaside buildings of that original period). Similar colours were popular on cars of the 1950's.

Love those 2 colours. Suspect they would look sensational outside in the sunshine!

£6k for a colour choice seems ridiculous to me but perhaps that’s a Porsche thing? Does it really cost them much to change the colour? Would have imagined it’s all automated and just a flick of a config setting on the computer?
