Yellow: yay or nay?

babbagandu · 09-07-2011, 08:41 PM

What does everybody think about the chicane yellow color? I searched the photo section and there are only 6 (small) threads regarding the yellow Z's.

Not sure how I feel either but I must say that I found this one to be stunning:
Chicane Yellow 370Z- almost done

So why are there not too many members with this color?

Nicely done car but NAY!!!!! I just don't care for yellow on a car no matter what it is.

Azroadster · 09-07-2011, 09:00 PM

Well being the very proud owner of a CY, I give it an enthusiatic YEA!

I see a few 350's in yellow, but since I bought mine in early '09 I have only seen one other yello 370 and it was in Phoenix. It's a beautiful color, and it's a pretty rare 370Z.

Yellow and carbon fiber would be sweet. Go for it. The only thing bad about it is that color dates the car. Don't like the tinted tail lights, but the wheels are perfect for that car.

TreeSemdyZee · 09-07-2011, 09:12 PM

You don't see very many because they were only made for one year.

NickTurnon · 09-07-2011, 09:35 PM

NAY. No resale value & you will regret the yellow!

Skeeterbop · 09-07-2011, 10:00 PM

If it's you thing then get it. I would never honestly purchase a car with resale in mind.

Very aggressive color and it was only available in 2009 are reasons why you don't see more on the road.

I personally love it and previously had an Ultra Yellow 350z as well.

I'm rockin' the yellow and loving every minute of it! It's a loud sports car color that attracts attention and stands out.

The only other color I would have liked more would have been Lambo orange!

The 370Z is pure sex! It is hot, loud, and rough!

If you talk to Killerbee here on the forum, his yellow Z is amazing. He's got the CF hood and it stands out big time. Really clean, black wheels with the TA Stripe as well.

fncrow · 09-07-2011, 10:25 PM

Go for it. I've only seen one once on the road and they look bad *** in person, pictures do it no justice.

tranceformer · 09-07-2011, 11:10 PM

Two kinds of vehicles on the road that are yellow: taxi cabs and school buses.

happytheman · 09-07-2011, 11:15 PM

I like the yellow..but they are hard to find. I LOVE the blue (which is why I bought it)!

mjg · 09-07-2011, 11:21 PM

I've seen the yellow in person once on the road, it seems to be a very rare color.

the yellow / black goes well together, but I wouldn't do it.

I've only only owned white and black cars, since my first car pretty much..I am a fan of some exotic colors, but I think I'd get tired of looking at the same wild color after awhile.

happytheman · 09-07-2011, 11:25 PM

Does the CY have a metal-flake? I gotta tell ya...the metal-flake paints just really POP!
