it still looks alright dirty, but than you clean it , and realize just how dirty it really was.. And than 12 hours later you need to whipe it down.

I love the PW, but you also have to watch the bumpers and side skirts with really bad mis matched colors..
i agree the back bumper gets too damn dusty.

Is the '11 coming out with a new silver color? You might want to wait for that, or you can buy my car so I can get the new color

PG is definitely the right color, and base coupe with sports pkg is definitely the right car. Dreamer is right about PG color in Houston...plenty of them...including mine!

By the way...hate to hear about your home damage. I hope it does not hit you too hard. I know about storm damage (Hurricanes) living in Houston. The last hurricane cost me for fencing, roof, soffits, facia, gutters and downspouts, three trees, and water damage in two rooms. Even after insurance I dropped almost $10K.

I just want to clarify that the 370Z used in TopGear is NOT Platinum Graphite. It's called Titanium Gray and available in Japan, Europe and Australia.

As for OP, go Monterey Blue or Go home!

The Nismo and 40th Ann Zs are great cars, however they are special cars from the factory. Meaning that if you mod them they lost that "value" being (monetary or sentimental) to a real Z enthusiastic.

That is why I'm glad I didn't make a deal for a Nismo like I first wanted.

I don't think it's that big of a PITA. Ya, it gets pretty dirty, but at the same time you can let it get pretty dirty and it won't look too bad (similar to silver). It just looks a lot better right after a wash

I agree on the side skirts and bumpers. My sides had to be resprayed by Nissan to get them matching, bumpers are pretty damn close though.

You want the best for keeping it clean? Brilliant Silver FTW.
