Gun metallic or red?
 

I need some opinions. I lease a 2011 370z with the sport package, gun metallic, recently I got offered an deal from the same dealer I got the car from that puts me in a 2013 model with $100 less of a monthly payment and no cash out of pocket. Nothing not to like about that.

The question is - do I get another gun metallic, which I really love, or go for red which I've never seen in person but I am sure I'd like? The dealer has found a gun metallic one, but it's a few hundred miles away. The red one is closer so they are trying to sway me that way but I just don't know. Any opinions? Get a different color to try something new or go with what I had?

I love the Gun Metallic. Red isn't my style. I like the idea of changing it up, but I think the Midnight Blue is the only color that I would choose over the Gun Metallic.

the red is AWESOME in person.....OMG!!!

If you post immediately after my post it won't show up... just refresh the page :tup:

The red is nice in person, the only thing is that I feel like the headlights and LEDs on the '13 kind clash....

I saw both recently. The red really stands out if you want to be noticed.

GM is more subtle.

Easy answer: get both.

I'd get a red one since you already had a GM. New color or body style will always get you excited, at least for few days.:tup:

the last red car i had was a parking lot accident magnet.

the last dark colored car i had was a bird crap accident magnet.

How did you get $100 less a month?? I though these cars msrp has been going up

he got raped the first time maybe?

Which red is it? The new color?

So now the question to op is you want to get a parking lot accident magnet or a bird crap accident magnet.:ugh2:

Solid Red or Magma Red? If it is Magma I would choose that over GM. But as JARblue said Midnight Blue would be my choice as well in a '13.

We have way too many colors designated as MB by the way...gets me :confused:

LOL! I'm a she, and yes, I'd agree with that statement. I failed to do my research before walking into the dealership because I was "just looking" but fell in love with the car. I could afford the payment so the next thing I knew, I was driving away in the Z. Nissan is running a special now on Z leases, so I'm getting a better price. I asked them if I could just renegotiate my lease and save everyone the trouble and they said no. But I had to haggle like hell to get them down to where it was worth it to me to switch cars.

I've looked at pics of the red on this forum and it does look nice, and I agree, I have a gun metallic car, so I should switch it up with another color. So I'm going with the red (parking lot accident magnet), and if I don't like it, in three years I can get a different one.

Thanks everyone who weighed in, it really did help me decide!:tup:

ETA - it's the solid red. I saw the magma red and it looked burnt orangish to me.

Ok. I'm a gun metal guy myself. Last car was gun metal too. Saw a couple of red Zs at another dealer recently and was blown away. Kinda wanted to trade! Lol. Seriously, the red looks awesome on the Z. I just never had good luck with red cars (engines blow up or people run into me) so I steered clear. Haha
