Hey all, I'm sort of a lurker here, but I just picked up a set of 2012 Sport wheels for autocross and track use, so I thought I'd post up a couple comparison photo's. I <3 this color!!
2014 Sport Wheels http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f2...s/IMG_2245.jpg 2012 Sport Wheels http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f2...s/IMG_2246.jpg I definitely enjoy the 2014's more because of the gunmetal and shape of the spokes, but the silver of the 2012's compliments all the silver accents on the car. |
I'm definitely a fan of this color and considering purchasing a 2013 Z. How is the upkeep on this color compared to say, Black? My first Z was Black and it was an absolute nightmare to keep looking clean.

It's still a dark color, so pollen and dirt show up fairly easily. But having also owned a black car in the past, car washes last longer than a couple days (maybe a week) with this navy color :tup:

Out here in AZ it's still only a couple of days on average. If I can get a week out of it I'm impressed. It's sad. :( But, it's also a daily driven car, so that has a lot to do with it not lasting. |
...and, it doesn't look too bad on the '12 sport Rays. I've been curious to what it may look like.
:tup: |
Mine will hold across two weekends typically. Depends on the pollen count as noted before. Mine is not a dd and is garaged, which also helps.
|
I've only had mine for a week. I've washed it three times but we had a lot of rain which made me wash it twice, and then I went on a short road trip this weekend so there were bugs to get off. :)
I'm similar to jpkirk, though. This is not a DD and it is garaged, so I expect to be washing it less than I have been on average. |

I love my MB Z but the blue is amazing. If I could I would have a blue one!

Man, that color is breath taking. Almost wish I would have pulled the trigger on the 2014 in midnight blue.

Nice z
|
Yup. Looks like mine except for the rotors. I don't have slotted rotors.

Cant decide if I like midnight blue better or gun metallic

A fall foliage photo:
http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f2...508_n-Copy.jpg And, I had the opportunity to park next to a Deep Blue Pearl GTR this week. I think the DBP is a little brighter in comparison to Midnight Blue. As a GT-R enthusiast though, I hate to say this, but I like the Midnight blue better! :ugh2: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f2...f7b2ef2439.png http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f2..._2690-Copy.jpg http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f2...Z/IMG_2692.jpg http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f2...Z/IMG_2691.jpg |
MdB is def. better than DBP.
