Better sales..Chicane Yellow or Black Cherry?

gatorfast · 07-19-2009, 09:23 AM

I wouldnt buy either but I will have to say the black cherry will have better sales. More people will like subdued look of the black cherry than the flashy yellow. Especially all the 50+ year old guys I see cruising around here in there 350z roadsters...when they upgrade the black cherry will suit them perfectly.

Gosh...I guess I had better tell all the 50+ year old guys I autocross and road race with that they need to "tone it down" when it comes to the color of their vehicle.

Well, I broke the tie. BC reminds me of the GTR's Opal Black, thought NOWHERE as pretty.

I'm 45 no wonder I went for the flashy yellow.

Well, you'll have to sell it when you're 50..maybe they'll have a nice beige by then.

Not speaking in absolutes, just a generality. Obviously anyone can get whatever color they want. The pole question was simply which color will have better sales. I wasnt making fun of older people, just saying most of the people I see driving 350z's (mostly middle aged adults) would probably prefer black cherry over the flashy yellow. I think the average buyer in general would choose black cherry over yellow. Same reason most cars you see on the road are black, white, silver, and not red, yellow, green.

Funny...I always thought I was buying what I liked; I didn't know it was all due to my age at the time I bought the vehicle.

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

I can't believe Black Cherry is winning the poll ... When I saw the picture of the Chicane yellow before buying my car it helped close me ... The Cherry just doesn't do it for me ... Maybe after seeing it in person I might change my mind .. But right now I think the Yellow will be the hot seller ..

The_Zed_car · 07-20-2009, 04:56 PM

Yellow ftw.

True sporty color.

qnsblvd · 07-20-2009, 05:09 PM

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!
