Last fall the only 2006 DB 6mt in the southeast was in SC...I paid to have it flat bedded in to AL.....no regrets. People stop me all the time to rave about the color.

I myself had the colors down to the 2 that i liked blue and white, I had to go with the white because the way it brings out the lines in the z and the pearl at night and in the sun is just amazing. Now that I have the white I still love it the only colors that catch my eye and make me think twice are black and red. But if i had to do it over again id still go with white.

Its OEM Daytona Blue. I had the dealer's body shop paint the covers and clear coat them. Only cost me $50. The same shop painted my spoiler too.

Get Black! lol... thats my favorite color.

But I was seriously thinking about getting the db instead. The db stands out real nice, and it's one of the best colors to hide dirt on your car. In the ppw, after 10 min of driving your car, it will look dirty.

You can't go wrong, but I will say that I definitely wanted silver until I saw DB in person. I bought the DB somewhat impulsively and am so glad I did. There's a silver Z where I work and I'm amazed at how many unsolicited comments I get from people that go something like, "Man, that silver Z doesn't come close to yours..." That's because it blends in with the 52 other silver cars in the parking lot. The only other car that comes close to mine color-wise is a blue STi and looks-wise, well you know how that compares... There's something to be said for blending in, but why buy a Z if you want to blend in?

White=beautiful but subtle - classy, but tends to blend in
Blue=beautiful and BOLD - shimmers in a vast sea of dullness

Blue Devil, 911's, Sti, Bentley GT all great cars that come in blue. It must be worth it. I specially like how the 911 looks. As for the 350, check to see if the 06 comes in blue, if it does, go for it. If it doesnt and only came the previous version everyone will know its not the new one even if you change the lights.

PPW? eeww. Just my opinion though. I could never drive a white car. Or for that matter one without metallic paint
Your other choice is great, go with the DB!

I will admit though on the Z the white can look very sharp. I've seen the different shades of silver, one black, and a Lemans driving around my town and the one that caught my eye and had me looking back at it a few times was a PPW. Must be since it doesn't blend in with the other cars at all. You can't miss a blinding white PPW Z !

Maybe someday we can have a car that we can change the color by just tweaking a **** on the driving and navigation unit.
