Moonlight Blue Metallic

Moonlight Blue Metallic (Mondscheinblau Metallic, code C5M) is a deep, dark indigo-blue metallic with a cold, almost nocturnal character — dark enough to read as near-black in poor light while revealing a rich, saturated midnight blue in direct sun. The color was introduced on the Cayenne in 2014 and extended to the Boxster, Cayman, and Macan through various model years, becoming particularly associated with the Cayenne as a sophisticated large-vehicle blue. The color also appears under a companion pearl metallic variant in some cross-reference databases, suggesting it was reformulated or offered in slightly different finishes across different model generations. On the Cayenne in particular it reads as the darkest, most formal of the available blues — a prestige choice that communicates discretion and quality without announcing itself. Its deep, dark character makes it one of those colors whose full complexity can only be appreciated at close range or in ideal lighting conditions.
