2011 New Color

M6 for the win!

IMO auto you lose a lot of the added control/feel and that's the main reason most people get sports cars is for the shifting and driving experience of the stick shift in such a high performance car!!

I just noticed when you try to build a 370Z on NissanUSA.com, that the Platinum Graphite color is gone. The "Gun Metallic" is there, but it looks exactly like Platinum Graphite, and nothing like the "Gun Metallic" from the GT-R builder.

I just assumed they haven't actually updated the graphic. I've yet to see a single picture of the 370z in Gun Metallic so maybe they're waiting until they release an official image.

I have been checking the website at least 5 times a day!!!
Obsessed Muched?! Yes very much so

Same here. I keep doing google searches for any updated pics, blogs, etc. The close I got was some French PS3 contest with a photoshopped mock up of what it'll look like. The image was way to small and it was only the back of a roadster. Grr... Hurry up Nissan!

So Thorium, u decided on a Gun Metal Z? Or a PG leftover from 2010? Watching your sig change.

I really really like the Gun Metallic on the GTR but I'm still waiting to find an actual pic of that color on the Z. I'd jump all over the GM if I get a chance but I love red cars. If I get a good deal on a Solid Red leftover I'll go that route. [Red = Extra HP!!

] I still have time to wait which is driving me crazy so I guess we'll see what happens. I have a feeling I'll get more for my money if I get a leftover though. See, I just can't choose!

Edit: Most likely not Gun Metallic. Might be black cherry with some weird lighting.

Damn that's hot. It looks better than my 40th minus the rims and brakes.

ThoriumHotdog · 11-05-2010, 02:03 AM

I really really really like that color now. Weird combo with the wine top though.

I'm shocked I came across these pictures. I'm still looking for more pics and I'm coming up with a big fat nothing.

flashburn · 11-05-2010, 12:02 PM

Damn, I wish that color was available when I got mine.

LMBmikeZ · 11-05-2010, 01:45 PM

I hate the wine top for the roadsters its so fugly!

CERBERUSlucid · 11-05-2010, 04:11 PM

WOOOWWWW...good job on finding those pics bro!!!
Kinda makes me want to hold out for the 2011's instead of getting the 40th...
and I was planing on getting the 40th this weekend as welll...Hhhhmmmmmm decisions decisions...

ThoriumHotdog · 11-05-2010, 06:32 PM

Those are still the only images I've found. I can't wait to see the coupe. I spent at least 30 minutes trying to dig around that site to pull up larger images. No luck.

optiontrader · 11-06-2010, 01:50 AM

Those do look nice!

Hmmm... I always though gun metallic was lighter (like pics of the GT-R on the internet)?
