This doesn't look like any of the standard colors available in the car builder, but colors aren't always rendered well there.

Def not frozen blue metallic, and despite all the FBM haters on this thread, the only other color I'd spec in a taycan besides frozen blue would be PTS acid green - black, silver, chalk, white, red = everybody else

I love the color, wife even wanted me to order that color. I just lean towards less flashy colors in general so I went with black.

My 2 cents is Ice Grey Metallic - Shades Green looks green (a shade off, who knew??) in all photos I've seen.

Definitely not Frozen Blue (it is demonstrably blue and is awful).

If only FB looked like this in real life!

Photo is not a close approximation to the colour when seen in real life. Picture is over saturated- same issue when you see photos of Carmine Red.

Always view any colour choice in the metal or sample swatch before ordering.

It's hard to get an accurate impression of colours when our smartphone cameras and device displays are typically trying to render everything larger than life (BTW, liking those red pinstripes).
For those who have a good impression of what Gulf Racing blue looks like, I've found pics of it on a 911 next to a FB Taycan for comparison...

Frozen blue is one of those colours where I exhibit all the Orwellian characteristics of doublethink. In the right light I think it’s absolutely stunning, and I sometimes wish I’d gone for it over Mamba. Then, on a flatter, greyer day (ie standard Norfolk) it’s washed out and reminds me of the 3 wheeled mobility carriages that used to be prevalent in my youth.

On balance, when it’s good, it’s magnificent.

This three-wheeled mobility carriage?

I’m assuming this is an unrealistic photo of a FBM Macan EV
