To me, Chicane Yellow is the sporty color, and Black Cherry is the more classy color.

Does anyone know if Black Cherry is roadster-only??

cave vulture 07-20-2009 05:21 PM

My guess is Black Cherry replaces Chicaine Yellow in the coupe.

I can't confirm that for certain but that is my understanding at the moment.

cave vulture 07-20-2009 05:23 PM

Amazing, a color (Black Cherry), that no one has seen in person yet is winning over Chicaine Yellow. Ah Me!

kdo2milger 07-20-2009 05:59 PM

I'd have chosen Yellow in a heartbeat over any other color on my Roadster if it was offered; which it isn't, unfortunately.

You are misunderstanding what im saying. This is not directed at you or any particular type of person. I was simply giving my option that I think the black cherry will sell better, thats it!

cave vulture 07-22-2009 01:32 PM

Yellow by a wisker.......

Mazda sold a black cherry version of the RX8, the Shinka, it looked really good in person

OWSIU 07-22-2009 07:03 PM

Black Cherry would sell better, but Chicane Yellow looks better.

cave vulture 07-23-2009 11:53 AM

Too close to call.......

Thats tha first thing im doing to my Z when i get near x-mas time. Back to tha poll I think yellow shows off tha fine lines of tha Z

I agree, if by Bronze color you mean the Lemans Sunset. It's like a burnt orange color.

I liked the 350z's with that color and think it would look AWESOME on a 370z

Me personally I ordered a 7 a/t base+sport in black cherry!
I hope yellow winds up being the more popular color? Lol
Exclusivity is always nice... lol
But I'm also thinkin of changing to a free color n goin aftermarket on paint.
I like that orange I been seeing in import tuner mag.
My imagination has me goin thinkin goin polar white. Very dark- blood red pearl (kinda sorta like black cherry but slightly more pronounced red) or electric-midnight blue.

MeetJoeAsian 09-19-2009 05:53 PM

the name Black Cherry just reminds me of woodgrain...maybe if they call it ABSOLUTE VIOLET or something like that, it would sound much better...In sports cars, I think the yellow is the loudest and it goes with the territory...Yellow is flashy, it stands out, it's what you want when you purchase a sports car....however, I think that a lot of people won't get yellow for that reason...yellow and black cherry are pretty much opposite end colors...you get yellow because it's flashy and sporty, you get black cherry cuz it doesn't scream aggressiveness...some people want a sports car to be flashy, and hot, hence the yellow will do that...whereas, some want a classier color, something that doesn't draw much attention, that's where the black cherry comes into play...

white, silver, gray, black...those are all the neutral colors...

yellow, blue, red...those are the sporty colors...you will never see a Lamborghini or a Ferrari in a Black Cherry, unless if it's a custom color (like the Veyron*)...

if I have a choice, yellow all the way

*then again, Veyron also has this custom color:

Not even close
 
The Black cherry looks boring. My choice and car:

I would really like to see some better pictures of Black Cherry before answering this poll. The 350Z included some darker burgandyish colors like Brickyard and Interlagos Fire. I always liked Brickyard because it was a burgandy color. A friend of mine had one and it looked great in person. It was only available for one year though (2003). Interlagos Fire was more of a brown hue to me. Something with a purple hue might be interesting.

I pre-ordered a base black cherry coupe spt pkg 7a/t. When I asked. The dealer said it should be available for all cars. The red interior is limited to the roadster n the 40th anniv. Model. 40th anniv models are limited to 40th ann graphite.

chief_Roka 09-29-2009 11:53 PM

My issue with the yellow is that it has a canaryish hue. I would prefer a deep yellow to gold.
It looks like that in pics but in person its a light sorta yellow.
That's my same issue with monterrey blue. Its hot in pics. Almost like royal blue. Then in person its like lightish baby kinda blue. In these cases the live color doesn't look as good.
The black cherry looks darker in pictures n its not ugly but doesn't look extravaggant. So this is where I took a gamble.... I figered if black cherry looks lighter in person than in pics like the trend has been? The black cherry will look hot!
7 for 7 imo what hasn't looked as good in pics turned out to exxceed my expectations in person. (Black, red, graphite, white)
N the hottest Z's in pics disappointed in person. (Yellow, blue, silver)
All the z colors that I wound up being disappointed in were my 1st choices by lookin online. The other colors I fell in love with at the dealership.

turntaker 09-30-2009 05:48 PM

chicane yellow
 
chicane yellow, i dont like the black cherry maybe it will look better on coupe.

Zaku 03-21-2010 08:54 PM

Yeah I would really like to see a good shot of the cherry before voting =D

Even if I didn't buy yellow, I would NEVER choose cherry for a sport car, way FUGLY !!

dropped1 03-21-2010 10:24 PM

Yellow FTW. And the polls are tied!!

370er 03-21-2010 10:50 PM

Yellow :P

Zigen5 03-21-2010 11:38 PM

Wow, alot of haters... Black Cherry all the way!!! I love my Black Cherry, alot of ppl far away say its black, but when your up close it gives off a maroon pearl color... Let me post picks before you start hating the blk cherry.. ;)

tonybui 03-21-2010 11:40 PM

No matter how nice the color is, it doesnt apply to a SPORT car IMO (so its just my opinion lolz)

wachu 03-22-2010 10:23 AM

I bought yellow, so I guess I would have to choose yellow heh.

mjch3n 03-22-2010 10:40 AM

Just picked up a '10 base coupe in black cherry w/sport pkg. The dealer also had two touring roadsters in the black cherry. Not my first color choice but its starting to grow on me.

RandyJamesA 03-22-2010 10:56 AM

Yellow is too crayola, kiddie color in my opinion. Suitable for the younger crowd who still need bright colored feathers to attract a mate. The black cherry has some style with some zest I could handle. Personally, I've got the graphite, like a sharp business suit with some spirit underneath. It goes better with my grey hair.

Just my 2 cents; don't take any of it personally.

Haven't looked at it quite that way, buy you know what? It makes alot of sence. :tup: With that said I still like yellow more that B/C

j.arnaldo 03-22-2010 12:36 PM

It's a near-tie!

Jesse_Hunter 03-22-2010 12:56 PM

I typically only buy cars in black or silver, as do alot of people I have come to realize. I must say, the more I see the yellow Z, the more I think about it. It just shows the curves and detail of the car so well, it stands out, and with black rims it looks fantastic! :tup:

I'm still getting black, but I am deff a big fan.

I don't really care much for Black cherry, but to each his own. Respectively

SkyZ 03-22-2010 06:56 PM

hehe titanium + 40th gray > all =D

Lemers 03-22-2010 08:35 PM

I don't care much for crayola 8 pack colors you know (black,gray,brown,blue,green,yellow,red, and white). It feels like those colors are too usual. I bought my black cherry when 2009s were still availible and didn't even consider yellow.

Jesse_Hunter 03-22-2010 08:50 PM

I'm also all for Lime green, and burnt orange. Too bad those aren't standard colors. Ha

Zaku 03-22-2010 10:53 PM

Actually orange would be pretty cool, Where are the Black cherry Pics! im still convince it looks good. Even if Im a Yellow fan

ianthegreat 03-23-2010 08:38 AM

Is that seriously a 107-107 tie? Reminds me of American politics.

IHas370Z? 03-23-2010 10:40 AM

Broke the tie! Definitely yellow

Diocletian 03-23-2010 01:01 PM

Chicane is best yellow.
