White...very stunning color on the Z, and hardly anyone has it. (at least compared to the other colors), also easier to keep "clean" than black.

(btw, my Z was sunset...and my nsx is silver...but when I get the GT-R, it'll be white. Very classy).

My Z is Pikes Peak White, and I think it looks great. However, if you get the silver, and then get some aftermarket black wheels, the overall look in my opinion is just awesome. The black and silver contrast looks very nice.

I think PPW w/ black shoes can look very sick. PPW FTW out of those 3 options.

I bought the car silver because I couldn't really find any other color. Since then it has grown on me.
I used to hate white because my sister has white and its creme b/c of the dirt after only 4 years. However, i clean my car once a week... My next car will be white just because it looks real classy, and its easier to match aftermarket body kits (looks not color) to it.. Gold fits awsome to white, so does black...ect..

Silverstone is the most popular 350Z color.
Why, because thats the biggest color Nissan produced, and PPW was the fewest? That means PPW isn't popular then?

PPW definately.

I have a black Z, it is stunning when it is clean..........after about 30 mins after washing it theres dust all over it so the next car i get is going to be white, plus a white Z with black rims = SICK!

They produced it because the majority of new cars are sold in silver.

PPW isn't easy to match, it has rainbow sparkles in it. I wouldn't get white, it's a chick color. Black is always good if you can keep up. And well I own SS, because it looks so good in the sun.

PPW definately.
There are several colors that I left off the chart: Liquid Aluminum and Ultra Yellow for example. The numbers are so few that they are inconsequential.

In a HOT State like Florida, Pikes Peak White would be a good choice.
