My gal does nothing but complain about yellow Z's and how much she hates them, regardless of rarity. I disagree with her but this may be a negative factor with others as well.

Long live yellow.

pw/persimmon IMO is the best color option, when I ordered my z i knew I had to get that color option even if I had to wait 4 months to get it lol

My relatively short experience is that the PW/Orange fully loaded 6 speed is very hard to find even in Socal. I rarely see any for sale. I am like you, that's the only combo I would consider.

Just curious... what year is your car and how much you were able to get off from the MSRP? Thx.

I find that in any popular sports car white is the hardest of any color to find and will always command a premium. Some more than others. On the Z I see Pearl White exterior of any combination commanding $750-$1000 roughly higher than say black or silver. In the S2000 world it's even higher. $1500-$2000 especially if you find the white with red/black interior.

^ good observation but I think what they really trying to imply is:

Rarity equates to premium price in the process.

Btw why so Critical? Lol

All i see at the meets are white Z, probably the most common color on our platform.

Red interior almost always sells for a premium on sports cars.

Black/persimmon looks great too imo.

Agreed, I don't think any color really commands a premium, but there are more desired/rare colors that will be hard to find.

My first choice was a midnight blue with grey leather (I think this is the best combo for the 370z). Second choice was pearl white with persimmon. I own a magnetic black on black
