What premium would you have paid to get your Z in ANY color of your choice?
 
Well I was looking at a Koenigsegg (not to buy of course) at a dealer a while ago, and when I asked them to see what colors it came in, they said well whatever you want.

It was some rediculous price (mind you the car costs a million dollars), however if you ordered a new one, you would just walk in with something in the color you wanted, and koenigsegg would replicate the color.

Obviously Nissan would not do this for a $35k car, however IF they did, what would you be willing to pay for it, and what color would you want?

No real point to this thread other then to spark up conversation other than 390z's, SRM, VDC Off, first mod advice, and nismo vs sport.

Well, '10 BC owners and '09 CY owners, some of us paid the 500 dollar premium, so there's at least that.

But if I could get this car in a nice apple green, I'd pay 1-2k for that kind of thing.

theDreamer 03-31-2011 09:43 AM

I would pay an extra 3-5k for the exact color I wanted and if it was not sh1t like the current paint.

That is a tough question, it would be a toss up between a certain blue and maybe a really vibrant 'WOW' color (think like orange or something).

I tried this at the time of purchase. I was willing to pay $5000 that day for Nissans Cobalt Green. No way was the dealer response. Now I am happy with boring silver. $5000 has now purchased and installed all my mods. A much better use of money in retrospect.

Cobalt Green

bflosabre91 03-31-2011 09:53 AM

prob like 1-2k for me. I'd go for a nice orange color. not like the metallic orange but maybe more like the mustang orange like this:

shadoquad 03-31-2011 09:55 AM

I think the colors Nissan missed out on are:

1. a bright orange like the later 350's
2. a nice medium-bright green
3. a dark blue

* maybe midnight purple

Red__Zed 03-31-2011 10:54 AM

2k-ish. I may remedy this by wrapping the car, although I am pretty happy with the red.

Burn in hell you stupid spamming cvnt.

SPOHN 03-31-2011 11:49 AM

These spammers are another reasons you should pay at least a dollar to join this site. I bet that would stop it. Course you should support the site anyways.


But back on subject. I'd like to have a color such as our calipers. That dark grey I believe.

Sorry then. I thought there was some smart butt going on there. It is. But I want even darker. Darker than even the 40th. I know it's not much different. But I like super dark greys. Pending on the light it can look silver somethimes.

ClemsonWill 03-31-2011 12:53 PM

Well I paid almost $5K to get a Magnetic Black 2010 over a Pearl White 2009 with the same options. The PW also had 666 miles when mine had 8.

I wouldn't pay anything extra. We should have had quality paint and clear to begin with, and Nissan should have offered a dark blue!!!!!

Ardent_Z 03-31-2011 03:07 PM

I really wanted Green, or a nice metallic dark red.

SPOHN 03-31-2011 03:13 PM

I would go for a certain type of green. But very few.

I would love a verde ithaca (lambo green), but this would not work on my DD Z. I would get sick of it.

Also, don't know if the Z is exotic enough to handle such a color

TheGreatOne 03-31-2011 03:37 PM

If the 40th color was only special order, I would have paid a premium for it. Other than that, The stock colors are pretty nice on their own

That's a bit too bright imo, but I wouldn't want it to be dark like BRG, either. Something in the middle there, like this:

http://supercardigest.com/wp-content...uper-car-2.jpg

But that's just my opinion.

TypeOne 03-31-2011 03:48 PM

I accepted the color of my car... mainly because of the deal that I got on it.

Wish I had red though.

Jordo! 03-31-2011 03:54 PM

I love the red they used on the Z -- perfect!

I agree a dark blue option would have been nice instead of 17 different shades of grey :icon14:

Gold would have been pretty cool....

OldGuy 03-31-2011 04:08 PM

Red is what I wanted and got, for well under invoice. I would never pay a premium of any kind for any car for any reason. In my opinion, Nissan has too many dark colors on Z's. Altimas and Maximas. Obviously, I'm in the minority though, as I'm sure they did market studies and produce the most of what will sell the best to maximize profit.
