Why did you choose the color?

Seether13 · 09-24-2010, 02:18 PM

Although I have graphite, i quite like the red.

White is a colour I associate with government vehicles

I only got the black Z cuz that was the only one on their lot at the time (Feb 09) but I really wanted the Pearl White but settled on the black beauty. I DO wish I had the white, and am currently trying to find a good deal for trade in for that color. Definitly keeping my headlights, sway bars, and exhaust tho

if a trade in is possible with my prices.

I always buy red and my red 370z has earned countless complements. I think it's a most appropriate color for a "hot" sports car and I'd do it over again.

When it comes to this question you gotta stick with your true colors! Lol! I usually stick with unique colors and models that suit me and will seperate myself from the others. Dont jump on a band wagon.

Jordo! · 09-25-2010, 04:07 AM

I was torn between black and red... and was surprised to find that I liked the Z quite a bit in white and silver too, even though those are my least favorite colors.

But when I saw the red, I knew that was it! The solid red color is, at least to my eyes, one of the most vibrant reds I've ever seen on a car -- perfect!

And it's a sports car -- those look best in red to me

Sunsational04 picked it!

J/K

.. I love the color! I initially ordered Pearl White but very last second order was changed to Monterey Blue due to "someones" request!

I like the briliant silver because i feel that it accentuates the curves of the Z. Also the colors of the environment is reflected off the mettalic paint that gives out a rustic silver/(insert color) tinge to it.

same thing happened to me when i had my black 350z, i always had white in the back of my mind so i had to buy a white 370 to satisfy my needs

I love red and so do the cops, so that left me with PG or BS. I liked the thought of a lighter color with light seats to repel some of the suns rays. White is too hard to keep clean so when dealer wanted to deal, $7500 off list on a silver one, that settled it. The seats and car are much cooler than my cobalt green 300ZX left in the sun.

sonic370 · 09-25-2010, 07:56 PM

This sounds strange but color really didn't matter when it came time to buy.
I had black before so i knew how hard that color was to keep clean. They look great detailed but that only last 10 minutes unless it's never driven.

Yellow is nice but to me it sticks out to much.
Everyone knows all sports car are Red.
So that's why i got the M Blue.
After you detail it you can drive it for days and it still looks clean.
Any 370 will turn heads but the M Blue seems to attract a lot of attention.

They should bring back Sunset Orange. Though my wife would kill me if I bought one, LOL!

wanna trade? LOl j/k..... found out that it'll cost me $786 a month for trade w/ the touring

I'm currently paying $601 and can't afford that price difference... guess I was meant to have the black after all haha. I'll love the Z regardless, needs some clay and polish for all the obvious swirls tho

He also needs some type of lip and rear add-ons for me to be more satisfied

Vegitto-kun · 09-25-2010, 08:24 PM

Demo car didn't have a choice. it was that or 6000+ euro and 3 months of waiting

fullmonty · 09-25-2010, 08:35 PM

I went it Blue because it was the brightest color I could find. If they had yellow I would of went with that but no dice. The blue really looks sharp on this car though
