?

Sorry for the crappy quality, didn't feel like getting out the real camera. These were taken in my garage tonight. I took the two, one of the DRLs and one of the headlights, to compare the color temperature. The DRLs are bright and very white in person.

Rockhound, Looking really nice. Thanks for the pics and enjoy your ride!!!

I officially like this bumper more than the 09-12 one now.

Awesome shots Rockhound!

I'm curious, what didn't you like about the Midnight Blue? I may be in the same boat. I am waiting on Midnight Blue. Got my VIN on Saturday; expected delivery is around 9/14. The dealer ordered this car for stock back on 6/6, I just put a deposit on it a week and a half ago. If I don't like the color in person, I'm switching to Gun Metallic.

I like colors that are bold and rare. Which is why I wanted the Monterrey Blue. The Midnight Blue in person looks very boring. It reminded me of a Porsche color too much. Plus the new sport rims I had the car equipped with looked too dark with the color. BUT the red calipers were hot

Hope this helps!

When Z's came out, they had Monterey Blue, Mustangs came in Grabber Blue (still do, in fact), Mazdaspeed3's came in a similar blue... I didn't find it particularly rare. Bold, sure.

How about a mod to install a switch to turn the DRL's off ?
I despise them. And I'm thinking about a 2013 in Magnetic Black.

I should have clarified. I meant rare for my region. In NY, Mustangs are rarely blue mostly black. Mazda's are rarely blue, they are gunmetal. But even the name "Monterrey Blue" only pops up on one other car at that time.

Went to look at the first 2013 in Calgary. Took some close ups of the LED's and the front.

Magic Bus · 08-08-2012, 08:49 PM

Just got word, my 2013Z is arriving at the docks tomorrow or Friday. Dealership should get it early next week and hopefully I'll be driving it before next weekend!

Magic Bus · 08-11-2012, 08:48 PM

Just got back from taking care of all the paperwork at the Nissan dealer. Will be driving my new 2013Z Gun Metal 6mt, w/sport pkg by the middle of next week.

I posted the price I paid for the car in the Introduction section, thread is titled 2013 on Order. Will post pics here when I p/u the new car.
