color choice

Hi, I am considering my choices for exterior and interior colors. What are your favorites and why? Do the inserts in the leather seats show wear differently than the rest

I think at this point I'm going to be stuck on white on black.

Have had just about every other color car but white exterior is easiest to keep looking clean. Ditto for the black interior.

white all the way.. always been a fan of white cars and the pearl just puts it over the top on a sunny day.. also you have so many choices for wheel colors and carbon fiber looks great with it.. also its easiest to maintain.

Red on black because it looks good with carbon fiber accents, is easy to maintain, and looks good any time of the day. Oh, and I am not opting for the leather seats since I am going to replace the OEM ones for aftermarket anyway.

Monterey Blue because it is unique and a head turner! I am opting for the gray interior as well because you don't see this combo too often.

I love black, but it will drive me nuts with the Z because I will want to keep it spotless and scratchless 24/7, which will be impossible with that color. I saw a brand new black 370z at car show that had like 20 miles on it and the swirl makrs and smudges were highly visible.

But I must add that white would be second choice! I love the pearl effect!

I am going with White/Persimmon. There is none available so far on West Coast unless you order it.

I was of the notion of replacing the seats with aftermarket ones but after getting a feel for the leather seats, they are certainly good. I opted to go fully loaded touring with sports etc, platinum graphite with black interior. I wanted my 1st 350z in the silverstoney color but never found that when I was getting it, but this time I get my wish from the get go ^.^
Good luck in deciding on the color I wanted a blue at first but wanted something more low-key and PG is simply the best to keep clean etc, and doesn't attract as much attn as the red/blue.
