Default 40th Anniversary Edition in person

Pics guys! Found a 40th anniversary edition 370z at the local Nissan dealership. I stop by every once in a while because they go through Nissan GTRs rather quick, so I like to look around. Good stuff.'

The sky was overcast (dark at noon) and my car is platinum graphite. Notice how dark the 40th edition is compared to my "dark" silver car.

Rep please! Lol.











Also, props to Bondy's Nissan of Dothan, AL. If anyone calls them about this car, tell them a guy in a Nismo stopped and took pictures, and shared them online lol.

Hmm not sure what to think. I liked it in the press photos but when sitting side by side to PG I think I like the PG more. Those dark wheels def cheapen the look of the car imo.

PG looks far superior to the 40th.

I think outside the fluorescent lights, the color is dull. Always liked the red calipers though.

Hmmm....if the Nismo version had that color option....would of jumped all over that.

Still nice 40th model....but wished there were more "upgrade" to justify the designation.

IMO, color kinda looks purply maybe just the pics. And the color of the rims make them look dirty. Just not a big time fan of the 40th annys.

I still for the life of me cannot figure out why they opted to not include the nav. It seems to me that the demographic of customer who would shell out the extra money for the exclusivity of the 40th anniversary edition would also want a fully loaded car with nav. In fact, the only reason why I would not really consider it is because it does not have nav but instead has the stock bose, making it even more difficult to replace with an aftermarket nav.

They really should do a market survey before launching these special edition versions. Also for some reason, I think the japanese version has navigation, as does the japanese Nismo.

Canucks and folks over in Europe have the option to get nav as well...why not the US? I guess Nissan thinks US drivers don't need another distraction to take their eyes off the road.

What makes me scratch my head even more is if you go to Nissan Cars, Hybrid, Trucks, Crossovers, SUVs | NOW Sales Event | Nissan USA you can configure the 40th anni model with nav.

Either way, makes absolutely no sense!!

To me, Platinum Graphite looks a lot better. I do like the red interior -- it spices up the interior quite a bit. The red calipers are also a nice touch. The dark wheels, though? Sorry, I don't get it. I think silver wheels whould actually pull off that color better. Imagine the stock Nismo wheels with that color. That would be nice.
