Can't decide on which colour Z to buy.
 
I am torn between red, silver and pearl white.

Each colour has it's pros and cons to me.

Red looks sporty and hot - but is a cop magnet, harder to keep clean and one of the fastest fading colours.

Silver is classy and sophisticated - easy to keep clean, but so oversold in the past 10-15 years. Also I currently own a silver car.

Pearl white - never used to like white, but I like the pearl sheen, even though the Z pearl is not as pearly as some. And the those pearl white Amuse kits look so good.

I have not seen the new red, so it could be an option as well.

I know that each one of you who owns these individual colours will be biased to that colour, but it would be interesting to hear your perspectives on your choice and how you feel the colour you chose looks and how it is to live with.

Thank you.

If you are running 100MPH, it doesn't matter the color - Mr Officer is going to pull you. :) My GT-R was red is so is my Z and I don't buy the red cop magnet myth.

Silver! Silver! Silver!

Ah... wait a sec... I had a silver one.

White! White! White!

Buy a white one and wrap it silver.

From black to silver... I love the silver. Of course, I blacked everything out..

But white looks sexy with black accents!

I own a silver but If I had another $40,000 change stuck somewhere I'd pick up a PW one. Try look clean AF!

Go with either red or white...silver is too common.

WHITE!!!! lol it was my initial choice before I changed to Monterey Blue. Love my blue Z though. But out of those colors, WHITE gets my vote.

BTW, I added a public poll (where you can see who voted what color). I hope you don't mind.

Nope. Should have done it myself. That's why you are the boss.

I realize now from AK that MB could be monterey blue and also magnetic black.

I thought his tastes were mediocre but now I realize they are refined and excellent.

honestly though I also really love white.. but my last car was white and eventually the sun made it a slight shade of yellow (the car was kept mostly in a garage although after so many years it's inevitable - but the image of it was a factor in my mind when I considered my colour nevertheless)

out of the colours you mentioned.. I'd hit up the white! :tup:

But back to topic, there's just something about a white 370z with some cf parts thrown in here and there :yum: . White will be my next color regardless of whatever car I get

Out of those colors, I would also choose white. However I do like how the silver blendes well with the headlight housings, emblems, handles, etc looks clean.

JungleZ 09-11-2012 12:24 AM

red or black, I have white and wish i got black or red. Black looks so good in person when clean.

By the way the pearl white on this car is a joke. I had a premium pearl white Honda Prelude and in 10 years not once piece flaked off. Nissan paint always gave me problems.

One_Quick_Z 09-11-2012 12:28 AM

When I went to look at them at the dealer they had every color that the Z could come in and I thought white looked the best, and at the time it was the rarest of the colors so thats what I picked up :)
