Default "ultra yellow" Z

my friend was getting his oil change so we swung by Nissan dealership next to it and checked out the yellow Z, i must say it look much better in person than picture. it's yellow with metalic. im considering yellow now since you dont see that color much on he road, except for the crapaliers (cavalier). i took 4 pictures from different angles with my cell phone but it still wont look as good as in person. it's definitely not a pale yellow as i expected, and it's bad ars.

:drooling:

my friend has a yellow ITR so that'd be awesome, 2 yellow cars.

much better, purer yellow at night than under sunlight. the last pict is more accurate of it.

see if you can see a yellow car in the reflection. that's my friend's ITR.

i guess it is something that you have to see in person - i like the idea of a yellow z - being a sporty color and all - but i have yet to see one - on the road or at the dealer... can't really say till i see it in person though.

although i got to say that night shot there did it justice.

Ya, i got a whole thread regarding this color and the it is a pretty color. Much better in person. The problem w/ pictures is that it can never capture or show the subtle details of the paint job such as the sparkles and metallic mix of the paint, thus it shows almost all cars dull looking via pix. Yellow is a very confident color, but the blue is also very nice. It doesn't screwm "look at me" as much as does the yellow. Blue gets its attention more subtle, if u know what i mean. I'm still considering both colors. Gl w/ urs.

It does look better in person than in pics, but I still kind of don't like it.

I HATE that dealership

Oh Low J., its a common misconception. Yellow Zs LOOK the fastest but in actuality, blue Zs are the fastest

if i decided to get it in UY, the set up will be: full CF Nismo body kit (isnt that replica from other than Nismo?), CF stock hood, the CF Nismo spoiler will be painted at the 2 ends and leave the CF unpainted in the center. i think that'd be sick!

Oh yeah? You should get a stencil and spray paint "STOP WHEN RED LIGHTS FLASH" on the back.
