Do you regret the color of your Z?

I was skeptical until I had the car shipped to me. Happy with my decision. Sometimes I regret it, I like Chicane yellow, Black Cherry, and 40th quartz just as

Not taking a tally or anything but so far most of the people who regreted on their color choice wish they got MB?

Yup I knew MB was the best color

Same could be said with chicane yellow. It's like one of those colors where you're pretty damn doubtful at first on pictures and samples and then get blown away when seen in person. Though if more people are buying blue z...then easier choice for me on gun metallic. ;-)

i wouldn't say regret but i do still wish i had that MB. that was my first choice but it was too hard to get here. i also would prefer the 40th but i think that would be even tougher to find. looking back i prob should have waited longer to get one cause the weather has been so shitty im still on the original tank of gas after over a month of owning.

I wanted blue or yellow but they didn't have any. So I went with the color with the best deal on it. Brilliant silver. Though I generally really hate silver cars. I must admit nissan and porsche are 2 car companies that make silver look good. The upside to the silver is it shows off the Z bodylines like no other color. But blue is one for me. Yellow is 2. I will most likely custom paint my car anyway at some point. So color isn't really a major issue. My car was purchased for custom car purposes. I will be doing interior exterior and engine mods slowly over the course of some years.

They didn't offer a roadster in '09, which is the only year they made CY, so good luck

No regrets here. I really like silver! My truck is silver, too!

No regrets, but that's probably because I have covered parking at home and at work. Otherwise I would never get a black car.

But I think a clean black car is about as good as it gets.

Monterey Blue is a great color for the Z.

No regrets. CY & Red are the best sports car colors, only I believe they attract police attention. So that left the 40th, PG, or BS for me. I went with the best deal. No tickets after nearly a year.
