Order The Porsche Taycan Turbo GT With $11,400 Full-Body Wrap

Sometimes car companies will produce wild camouflage wraps and liveries for test vehicles or record-setting cars to get the maximum amount of attention, but it’s rare for them to actually be offered by the factory. Porsche has gotten more extravagant in recent years, offering brighter colors and sticker packages on more models, and now it’s taken things to the next level with the Taycan Turbo GT.

If you’re a rich person with taste — and you’re reading Jalopnik, so I know you are — I need you to order your new Porsche Taycan Turbo GT with its optional $11,400 full-body wrap. It’s so good.

Available only on Turbo GTs equipped with the Weissach package, the so-called “Full Taycan Design Wrap” puts a huge Taycan script along the doors, with angled stripes coming off each letter and wrapping over the roof and across the body of the car. If that wasn’t enough, a third, huge Taycan script stretches from the start of the hood all the way back to the trunklid, to make sure that birds, planes and superheros know what kind of car you’re in.

If you don’t go for the Weissach package, which is a no-cost option on the Turbo GT, you can still get the “Taycan Exterior Decal Set” that adds slightly more subtle side stripes and a still eye-catching hood and roof stripe, both of which also feature the Taycan script. This package is only $1,210, and it’s offered with the Weissach car, too.

Both sticker packages are available in Voltage Blue, the correct choice, and either matte or gloss black, the incorrect choices. And while Porsche’s online configurator gives you “recommended color combinations,” you can pair these wraps with any of the Turbo GT’s colors, including those from the Paint to Sample catalog. Porsche may not agree with your taste, but it won’t suppress it.

In terms of other visual options, the Turbo GT doesn’t have many for now. There’s only six colors to choice from, including the Turbo GT–exclusive Purple Sky Metallic and Pale Blue Metallic, and the interior only comes in black with either GT Silver or Voltage Blue accents. I do love the new Victory Gold color for the brake calipers, and you can get the wheels in Neodyme gold, but otherwise most Turbo GTs will look pretty similar unless you go through Porsche’s Exclusive Manufaktur program.

The Taycan Turbo GT starts at $231,995 including destination, a $21,000 jump over a Taycan Turbo S. Load one up with every option and you’re looking at a $257,675 pricetag, but add on a Paint to Sample Plus color and that shoots up to $284,845. Taking delivery of your new Turbo GT at Porsche’s Experience Center in Los Angeles or Atlanta costs an additional $2,000.

When you’re driving an EV, even one that actually does make some cool external noises like the Taycan, you still aren’t grabbing peoples’ attention like you would in a 911 GT3 RS or any other supercar with a loud exhaust. So you’ve got to try and turn heads some other way, and a bright blue wrap featuring your car’s model name is the perfect solution.
