- The One -
The LED's are a whiter color. The cameras aren't capturing the color correctly. Also, our HID's are 4300k, not 6k. You can go to various websites like ddmtuning.com and buy 6k's and those do look amazing. 98intrigue had them in his 40th

Congrats man. Looks good. At first I though I read you drove off the lot with 9000 miles and was like what?! Aha. Too early for me.

HOUND CONGRATS! I saw the base rims on a white and a gun metal when I got mine but didn't think they'd look as nice as they do on your car. Enjoy the new car smell

Thanks guys! I had originally ordered a 2012, but the model year change occurred in May/June, and my order was submitted April 1st.

I was definitely underwhelmed by the first pics of the base 18" rims, but they really are nice in person. I think it was a good call to replace the previous base rims.

So I'm confused. Whats the purpose of the LED's if they can't be on at night when the headlights are on? Kind of pointless to me unless I'm missing something. Did Nissan just add these because it's the newest fad or something?

Just a question.

On my wife's Ford Edge Sport, you can take the lights out of automatic mode (by turning the light knob), and then the headlights and the LED's are on. Is this not the same in the 370Z?

I was in the same boat. Wanted a 12 Monterrey Blue really bad, then missed the last order date in late March. They discontinued the blue so I ordered my '13 in April. Things happen for a reason cuz I'm happy!

I actually ordered both a White and Midnight Blue. I didn't like the blue, but I can head back to the dealership and snap some shots for you guys.
