keep in mind, lambos paints are made w MANY more colors than simple run of the mill oem paints.
Nissan may use 4 pigments where lambo may have up to 13.

Also, they are usually multi stage paints, colored primer coats, base coats, candy coats, tinted clears etc.

It takes a master sprayer to get it to look as nice.. and is a ***** to match and repair later.

and THAT is why its the sickest color posted so far.

very cool color.
blue is boring, that lambo is not.

Agreed. I should just get an RSX and forget the paint job.

I know what you mean, but nothing too fancy here. I want it simple yet purposeful. I want it to be a sleeper; a simple paint job but packing over 500 hp that'll keep up with GT3s at the Nurburgring, which is a lot easier and cheaper to do on a Z32.

Jazz blue looks good, seems different than the R32 blue.

The R32 blue is deep blue pearl. My brothers big in the VW scene he has a Deep Blue Pearl R32. Can't go wrong with the R32 blue as well.

Both Jazz Blue and Nogaro Blue are a bit more pale. You really need to see both in person to appreciate them. But still look very nice. Good luck on your decision.
