Default Pikes Peak Owners in the House?

I saw a Pikes Peak Z yesterday on the road, and although white isn't my first choice of color, it really looks Sweet on the Z . I don't see too many posted on this board either. see alot of DB and Silverstone.

I almost bought a PPW Touring that a dealer had on the lot, but I just couldn't get over my DB blue lust so I ordered one

Nice color though!

Default PPW

I wasn't going to consider white until I saw it in the showroom, then I was sold on it. My last 5 cars were silver including the RSX type S I traded in for the Z.

My first choice is Daytona blue, 2nd was Silverstone. Now White just may be my second choice . My "90 Celica was white, '99 Beetle Blue, 2000 Celica Blue.

I got white because it was available at the best price. Now I really like it.

The PPW is so beautiful in the sun! So many people stop and stare!

I love my Z!

On one of these post's they had "WHATS your least Fav color Z" and PPW was I think the most least fav!(brickyard I think is a little funky but def not Ugly)

but whats funny---all the add's I'm seeing for parts like the VOlk add and others--they are White!!
-I think the Japs's like white the best IMO---they love Championship white(INtegra-R/Civic-R/NSX-R,etc) so thats kinda what I like the most about it---to tell you the truth I LIKe REALLY BRITE WHITES!!! and thought PPW was gonna be brighter---but in some light it looks KILLER and some it does seem a little Creamy--Alot like Champ white(Honda's) I think!

BUt the wheels will enhance the white even more w/ the right color selection--I think *Bronze* or Gold actually look GREAT-(*what I will get*) or even a really dark Gun Metal w/ a polished lip is my next choice!

I think the best color combo is actually White car w/ matching white rims-(I'm picky so they have to match perfect) but now white wheels are gettin a little Ricey!(wht wheels on any otehr color car look Shitty to me,like Red car w/ white wheels--uhhhhhhhhhh )!! BUt now that I think about it--97 & 98 ITR's have champ wht wheels and that is the best Color of all the ITR's years) But everyone knows PYellow ownz''haha Fastest of the ITRs!(to all you ITR owners)

and from what I remember I see alot of Pearl Z32's on the road as well,..I think that was the fav color of those as well!??

Thats mt point---sorry to get on a rant!

Cheers guys!(& gals)

Default oops--heres a pic w/ gold you've all seen!

just before any one Flames me on the whole Gold on white---you know this looks good!
Def a race car but if that we're to pull up next to you--you would be drawn to the wheels First!(subtract the stickers & wing of death of course)hahah

I am not a big fan of colored wheels. The gold are nice, but I don't like all the writing. Thanks for the pic!

I've got a PPW track model, and after seeing all the colors in person, I couldn't be happier with my choice. In direct sunlight, the car seems to glow. Other than silver, no other color shows off the lines of the car as well.......and no orange peel!
