Canadian Colours

FricFrac · 12-27-2008, 09:31 PM

Looks like Nissan Canada has upgraded the colour scheme to make up for the higher pricing here in Canada

Brilliant Silver = Airstream
Platnum Graphite = Carbon Silver
Chicane Yellow = Satsuma Yellow
Solid Red = Solid Red
Pearl White = Hakone White
Monterey Blue = Prussian Blue
Magnetic Black = Magnetic Black

I guess since no one was interested in Black they never bothered changing the name

the Black name is soo good, it didn't need any gimmicks !!!

and they had to do something to try and make white sound better but it still did not work.

nogoodname · 12-27-2008, 09:38 PM

the changed names sound horrible.....hakone...airstream...satsuma....hahah a

Hakone, Prussian, Satsuma? I had to look those up to even know what they were.

My friends: "What color is your car?"
Me: "Hakone white"
My friends: "WTF is a hakone?"
Me: "Uhhh, a national park in Japan"
My friends: "douche-bag"

Naw, they realize white is going to be so popular, they have to give it different names to confuse people into buying other colors.

That's not because they like black, that's because if they buy white Z's they will lose them in the snow and won't be able to find them until the three weeks in a year it's not snowy there.

Bad if you are trying to be found, good if you don't want to be found.
