Exactly! I went into the dealership wanting either Blue or Black or Red... then I saw the Pearl White coupe in person in the sun light.... that was the end of the other colors. Never had a white car in my life, then this comes along. Sleek, sexy, classy, and mysterious all wrapped in one. Throw in the tinted windows, and its over.

I just had my car detailed (getting way too busy to do it myself these days... BOOOO!) and it was amazing. Even the wheels glistened as if they were polished rather than painted. My paint looks better than new. The detailer took some pics and posted them on his Facespace, but the pics don't look all that impressive. You really do have to see it in person.

Pearl white + Flat Black = Good Tymes

I bought mine about the same time and already I managed to put swirls in the finish and smuge one area.. I need to do the entire bit with the polishing and swirl removal.. any one have any idea as to how long that will take?

FYI the reason no pic can do a white pearl justice is because it has very high dynamic range.. very bright in some areas and very dark in others ( tires) and there are very subtle variations in the finish picked up in bright sunlight that just cant be reproduced on a monitor and certainly not on photopaper..
I went to buy a Z and said that of all the colors I only would refuse white because to me it was boring....then I saw it and think none other can compare! Gets my attention without shouting and its attractive in a very sophisticated, refined way! YA!! |

Also maybe you or someone else could answer this; I saw some $16 car soap and some $7 car soap... now isnt soap the same and what is wrong with using the cheap stuff? I wonder if that expensive soap is just a marketing gimmick or is there really some reason why its worth the extra money. |

As far as soap... I guess soap is soap, but all my detailing products are not OTC, and available on specialty detailing sites. Just don't use dawn unless you're stripping LSP's!

Yes, I agree. Pearl white is beautiful and on a 370Z makes it wonderfull.
Somebody tell me where I can by the Rear Spoiler. I´m in Europe for one week and then come back to Brazil. I´d like to find it here because in Brazil no chance. |

Can't you just order that straight from Nissan? Have it shipped to you in Brazil?
