White Seems Like a Popular NISMO Color. But...

I love all three colors. Black is of course stunning. The white is so classy. And the red is so in your face...almost obnoxious. What to do??? |

I LOVE the black with the new Nismo's, but on the flip side its the hardest color to maintain.

I had the same dilema before I purchased mine. All colors look good. I just ended up waiting until the color choice felt right. In the end I eliminated red because my other car is red even though I prefer red for a sporty car. The red Nismo also does not look right with the red accents. I eliminated black because it is too hard to keep looking clean. Silver and white were a tough choice. I ended up eliminating silver because it just didn't pop like the pearl white with red accents. Silver looked like a dirty white.
After picking the color I wanted I searched for the options I wanted and located a dealer 3.5 hours away that had the car and a good price. Good luck and be patient if you want to get the right car and a good price. |

I have always gone with white or silver. Being extremely anal, is the reason I did not go with black. Plus light color cars are always the easiest to clean. My 2011 Nismo was silver so I went with white for my 2016 Nismo.

Nissan paint is notoriously terrible. Black is a PITA to keep looking good even with quality paint and clear. I'd go white. Looks amazing at night, too.

Had a 2011 silver and now a 2016 white. Both good but white really shows of the curves and the red is a nice accent on white, along with the dark wheels. White is so easy to keep beautiful looking.

To me, nothing looks as good as a nicely done black car. I'd get black and immediately get it professionally detailed and protected with something like CQuartz Finest or Opti Coat. In the event you have body damage that needs to be repaired, black is going to be the easiest color for the body shop to color match too. I think my next car will likely be black. I'd go with either black or white in your shoes. I'd stay away from red unless you're ok with the attention it will bring you.
