The Pearl White from Nissan looks better IMO.

Unfortunately no, just wanted to see people's opinions! Cause the pearl white isn't i would say a True White but more of an Off-White.

It's Pearl White, not meant to be a flat white.

Thanks!
If you can afford dropping the cash to get it done right I think it would look great. Plus, it'd be unique.

Ive had nothing but black and dark grey cars before, but when looking at the 370 I wanted white to change things up.

The pearl effect on white, I just didn't like. That's why I got SR. It's a very pure color.

If nissan had a white like that, I'd have gotten that instead.

Another idea. Have you looked at matte, or semi gloss white wraps?

No, havent really looked into it. Although there's this one guy, locally, that has a matte blue wrap done...things a real work of art!

But up above, I could really picture my Z, to look that colour :P

Yeh, I really like the ibis white, becuase it looks pure. I bet It'd be like 10k USD to get it done though. Not sure how much in CAD If you can, do it!
