I only wish I can drive it. Like i said though, they are pics taken by a friend. It apears to be a GT (since the touring is disco'ed for now). Those rims have always been around for the '06 touring and GT's.
I was planning on the silverstone, but now thats it's changing I might go white (ani-you ) or red. The new "silverstone, sorry I forget the new name, looks a little warm. I liked the cool silverstone of before, but it might be the indoor lights. We'll see. Cant wait!! But you know how I fwll

Doesn't make too much sense to me to do away with the best selling color, but whatever. Anybody got pics of San Marino Blue yet? Don't tell me it's that blue on that G35 I saw the other day... that looked like a 93 Honda Prelude Blue. I used to have a white 95 Acura Legend Coupe (R.I.Pieces) and after that car... I'll never go back to white again. People say black is hard to keep clean, OMG... white is worse for me ;p
DUH, sorry you are right, I meant track, not touring. No, no sign of the new bluw, that's the color his workplace was given. He actually said that the orange was really nice though.
So you said the new silverstone is darker? I might be reinterested. Did it look like a warm or cool color? White stays cool in the sun and it doesnt show scratches. I had a black car. She was a *****!

Would someone please re-post (or point me to) a picture of the new hood? I remember seeing it in this thread (on pg 36 or somewhere around there). But it looks like this thread was cleaned up with a bunch of the older pages being deleted.

Discontimued Purple shapeshifting colors are..not gay either...

THATS HOT!!! damn that Twin intake system is gonna be sweet.
Look guys. The 07' Z is 5HP more but thats Peak power. Im betting low and mid range will be killer (twin intakes!!). I loved my 04' Z but now Im ready to pick up a 07' Z

....they brought back the Datsun Z hood S30
As a automotive/transportation design student I have to be blunt and state that the hood design is a 100% last minute decision and overall fails to carry Ajay Panchal's original design lines and proportions...not a good design resolution on the part of nissan; but of course, things look different when you see them in person right? ...right.......?
