Wow, that first and second picture make it that much tougher.

Just put all the colors in a hat and pull one out.

I will say this ..... That red is hot looking and you do not see very many on the road.

Sweet God, grant this guy a piece. Errr, I mean, some peace.

Since you're in the Bay Area & from looking at your list of choices, I can tell you that there are tons of silvers (me haveing a SS myself) & DB's out here but very few Redlines. If you don't believe me, try checking out pics on the thread for our 3rd Annual RR/TI Meet. So the question now is, do you want to go with the more popular color or rarest color in your area .

Grey helps you do that. You have to be careful that you don't blend in too much on hot days too much. So, the con to a SS car is you have to turn on your lights to be safer at times. The pro is it helps you hide a bit...... Silver is the same thing .....

+10 SS all the way baby The SS reminds you of the grey on a great white shark

Thumbs up

I do agree that choosing a color was one of the toughest decisions I had to make as far the car's options / looks are concerned. I was initially sold on Daytona Blue...until i saw a Super Black w/ the burnt orange interior. To me, this had to be the best color combo you can get as far as the Z is concerned. SB might be a bit*h to clean, but if you plan on keeping your car clean... get this color .....SB looks the best out of all the colors when clean. The burnt orange combo makes the car look just amazing. Whats even better is that the burnt orange complements all the interior lights in the Z......YUM!

Had a redline Z and now have silver alloy. The silver allow is nice and all, but redline is without a doubt a more exciting color. Don't really regret the choice however.

Not sure if the Z has the same color, but the gray on the G35s, graphite I think, is pretty darn hot.

I'm guessing those are yours? Is that a factory spoiler on that redline or is it something else or am I seeing things and there is none at all?

It's hard to tell either way but maybe it's my imagination but looks like the spoiler I ordered a "Daytona'.

No wait it does have a spoiler cuz I can see the reflection on the underside of the spoiler.

Looks like a Daytona to me??

I picked silverstone because everyone in my family all have silver cars ,5 cars total, all shades of silver, i would of picked superblack but i would be an outcast...now that i picked the silverstone I probably wont ever go back to black or any other color.....but one thing is for sure I blend in....the Z is a sports car that looks good in all colors..

I would definitely say the red b/c adding the carbon fiber accent to it looks sick.
