I have seen pictures of a DB Z with black wheels, but never seen one in person. I like the look with the black wheels, but I think the silver Nismos look so nice I would hate to change them.

SMB looks more VIP/luxurious, DB looks more sporty.

That's a good analogy. That may be why SMB was an Infiniti color first.

I had a Daytona Blue '05 that I traded up to get the HR and I was trying to figure out which Blue I wanted....

I couldn't say it better. Both are beautiful colors and thanks for the side by side comparison pics.

It's about time they came out with a dark blue. The Daytona blue was the color of Z I saw when I knew I wanted one.

I've never seen a SMB in person, is it closer to blue or black? And is it really as beautiful as people say it is? these pics all look different

and it seems to take away the "sports car" look

the SMB is a lot lighter than in those pictures I used to have an 07 SMB

It really looks the best in the evening when the sun is about to set, on cloudy days it tends to look black from far away but when you wash/wax it on a bright sunny day the color really shines and is much much brighter than those pictures.

The best part about SMB is its really like 3 colors in one being it can be nearly black, to dark blue, to borderline light blue.

I definitely think DB is much more sportier and also a beautiful color.
