- - Why did you choose the color? (http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-general-discussions/8165-why-did-you-choose-color.html)

White is my fav color. my cars have always been white. even my phones.

Although color is such a personal preference, there may be functional reasons for color choice as well. In visual acuity testing, yellow and white are the colors most easily perceived, which is a good thing. When other drivers SEE your car they are perhaps less likely to HIT it.

My area has tons of wooded, winding, narrow little roads over hill and dale. Lots of emerging into sunshine and back into shade. I found that when I had black cars in the past (a Miata and a Maxima), people simply didn't see the cars. Not as bad as a bike! But still, I got cut off a lot more and had a number of near misses b/c folks simply didn't see the car. It got so bad that on the Miata I painted broad yellow racing stripes to make it more visible. Now that my cars are Imola yellow (Audi S4) and pearl white (370Z), this seems to happen far less often.

The yellow is gone. Which nobody knows how to put out a good
Deep yellow-gold pearl coat anymore.
And what's replaced is 40th anniversay graphite which is a charcoal type color.
And second is black cherry.
These are 2 colors not seen on very many cars since the late 90's and I'm hype cuz it would be really nice to break the monotony of the same black, white, silver, grey. Its boring already.
The monterrey blue is nice but too light. If it looked in person the way it looks in pictures...
I'd be all over it. In person it looks wayyy feminine.
I wish Nissan made the Daytona blue and midnight blue of past Z's.
Those I feel were some of there hottest colors.The red Z appeals to me and its uncommon cuz of police attraction so its iffy but I'm considering it...
Right now I'm considering
2010 black cherry
40th graphite
Solid Red
And if I went basic color, ill go black.

+1 for the bolded above. Daytona Blue is the best color I've seen on a stock car and I agree about the new blue, too pale. The 09 Red is really nice in person. The 370z looks great in red IMO, if you don't want to wait another year.

My fav is red, everything i drive or ride is red.

i need help with choosing the colour~~plz,come and help me~~

I m confused to choose the colour between blue and black~

help~~thanks~~

White is so Sexy:tup:

I have just always loved black cars.

Chicane Yellow FTMFW

WOW, this thread is from 09!

However I consider the Monterey Blue to be the 370Z best color!

Haha!!! Didn't notice it was such an old thread - ZOMBIE!

You know, is there a record for oldest thread resurrected (I'm sure this isn't it)?

And BTW, I prefer red on my cars, but wife thinks the 40th Graphite fits my age better (yeah, I is getting older...). :tup:

I buy BLUE cars as much as possible. It's my fav color.

was never a fan of red color on any car but Z34s are pure sex in Red that is why i got that color...
