I have to say that I would have preferred that they continue with the Daytona Blue from the 350. The second I saw that color, I had to have it. I have never had so many positive comments about the color of a car!

I was initially very disappointed when I saw the change to Monterey Blue. Still, I loved my blue 350 and wanted to continue in that tradition. I have to say that the new blue is growing on me and I'm still glad that I made that color choice. I had been considering the Platinum Graphite as well but there's just something about a blue Z that pops!

Looks very sharp. Great scenery and camera! (Canon EOS Rebel)

Btw, I encourage all Monterey Blue owners to contribute their pictures in this thread. I remember going through this thread twice a day before making my final decision.

P.S. Looking at your sig, that's a big BABY!

Thanks, AK! I live in Belmont Shore, which is a great area of coastal Los Angeles. In fact, I'm informally calling mine "Belmont Blue" because it reminds me so much of the ocean.

Good call on the Cannon! These were just some rushed shots the day I got the 370. I'm heading up on road trip with some friends to the Santa Barbara/Solvang area this weekend and intend to bring the camera along for some more interesting pics. I've got a buddy of mine who has a Mustang who will be driving up as well who is also into photography and we are going to try to experiment with some blurring action shots.

Blue is absolutely beautiful in person. Quite frankly, I don't think any of the colors are bad, just up to personal preference.

I really think they misnamed the blue as it is the same color as my 67 vette which was LeMans Blue!!! That car was aching for a racing stripe. I wonder if that is to old school for the Z?

Moar pictars!!! I love that blue, seeing it in person is what sold me on getting the 370z, I'm still trying to find one but I know I'll be satisfied with the Monterey Blue, it looks so good in person.

Very nice pictures!

Damn, blue looks real nice also.
After all this time, now I believe that all the colors look great on the z.

Just wanted to give a shout to you Monterey Blue folks. I brought my black 370 in for service/exhaust/oil cooler install and they had a blue one out front. It was the first time I'd seen one on a nice day outside.

That is a seriously nice color. I actually thought for a moment that I might prefer it to the black. They pulled mine out and I'm stoked; I always wanted a black sports car. But I just wanted to say that blue really does look good in person; the photos don't even do it justice.
