Does Nissan use the Z colours on any other vehicles?.

cooltoy · 09-06-2012, 08:39 PM

Dealerships in my city are only ordering a hand-full of 370Z a year. Right now three are 3 2013 and 3 2012 between five dealerships. So chances are, I might not be able to see all the colours in person. I have only seen solid red, gun metal and black rose.

Does Nissan use the same paint on other cars or are the Z colours exclusive?

Out of the colours that I have not seen, only the Altima sedan and Rogue use pearl white and brilliant silver.

Thanks for the help. I'll have to go check those out.

Nissan/Infiniti has the worst paint in the business and about 50 shades of grey/silver. My Frontier avalanche or cloud white paint started chipping after 20,000 miles. The Pearl white Z only has 3100 miles on it and already 3 tiny rock chips. I got about 5 total of 10 years of owning a Preium Pearl White Prelude with a 3 stage coating.
