I have a "white" 1988 300ZX Turbo. Both this and the new Z's color are actually "pearl" which is a pretty complex paint from what I understand. My Z is over 21 years old and the paint still looks amazing (see for yourself on my website). It IS easy to maintain. The only time you can tell my car is dirty is when it gets alot of black soot on it (I have no idea where that comes from).

As for matching, I hear its difficult, but I had the front corner touched up from a previous owner scuff and you cant even tell.
