2011 370z... Gun Metallic?

What about orange, green, burgundy, etc.? I don't know why they took away yellow.

The Chicane Yellow was the "special" color for the 2009 MY only.

I knew it was only for 2009 but it is a great color for the Z, instead of having all those shade of gray.

Plus I really don't like that Cherry Black color unless is rag top.

Deep metallic green. Or a nice orange metallic. And they need something more like a deep burgandy metallic--something that is closer to a dark red than the "missed the target" black cherry...

black cherry isnt bad except on cloudy days. it turns into doo doo brown. i do agree though that it missed target. it wasnt what we were all expecting, but its still better than yet another shade of gray. i can definately do the orange!!!!
how bout midnight blue metallic. that would be sick.

After considering the chicane yellow I set my sights on the Monterey blue, I used to prefer a darker blue but we all change our tastes with age. The blue pearl reminds me of a Grabber blue except its not opaque. All of the local dealers were and are still afraid to order it, they all think that silver, gray, and black are the only colors that have any resale value. They can keep on thinking that and when I pull up everybody starts looking at it, some of their salesmen have never seen it, I just keep driving around with a seldom seen sports car with a rare for this area color.
