so i FINALLY saw a blue Z in person at a dealership about 20 min away from my place. i was tipped off about its presence by a forum member (thx to olie2832), so i decided to take a drive to check it out in person on my day off...

the first thing i have to say is that the color is much darker in person than it appears in pics. maybe the metallic properties of the paint cause it to photograph lighter than it actually is? in some pics the color seems almost like a powder blue, when in actuality it's much closer to daytona blue than i originally thought. having said that, the color is gorgeous! it really accentuates the Z's lines and curves, and it compliments the body style very nicely. of all the colors, i think blue is the most head-turning.

i ordered my Z in black, and i have no regrets as a blue car isn't really my style, but i have to say that i was very impressed at how well suited the color is to the Z.

to all the blue Z owners: congrats, you have beautiful machines!!
