Andorra Red Metallic is a deep, dark burgundy-red metallic — at #5a3132 it reads as a very dark, controlled red with brown-burgundy undertones that give it a serious, sophisticated character. Named after the tiny Pyrenean principality of Andorra, it has the composed, European luxury sensibility its origin suggests. Code Z8N is available through Porsche's PTS programme with no confirmed standard production year. Four documented community examples reflect its status as a rarely chosen but genuinely distinctive option.
