One looks darker with a more brownish warm hue, whereas the Cayman is lighter with a more white/bluish hue.

If you like the color, just get it! It will be close enough that you will not notice the difference (probably even next to a Chalk colored Porsche).

I've noticed the same variances with Audi's "Nardo Grey" (which is what I had on both my RS5's). A friend of mine had an M340i in Nardo Grey, and to me it looked much different but in reality it wasn't. It was just the car, the lines, the lighting, etc. etc.
As a former 2x chalk 911 owner, its my belief that Porsche has 2 Chalk colors. The Macans chalk is much darker than 911 chalk and I dont believe the car shape has that much to do with it looking that different from each other.
