Default San Marino Blue vs Daytona Blue

I was at my local Nissan today and saw a SMB Z for the first time....it looks amazing in person. Anyways it happened to be next to a Daytona Blue so I took a pic, for a side by side comparison of the blues.

SMB with some polished wheels would be the PIMP!

I agree. It looked soooo good when I was there, a lot better than any picture can show.

As a DB owner, I have to admit that I'm kinda' jealous as the SMB is a truly beautiful color.

I really like both. But from a "swirl mark showing" point of view, i'd probably go with the daytona blue in the long run. Both are outstanding colors though!!

Honestly if SMB was the blue color available when I bought my '04 DB, I'd be driving the SMB and still be very happy.

Both are excellent colors!

In So Cal we would call this Midnight blue vs. Santa Ana Blue.

SMB is awesome washed, with polished rims and in direct sunlight.

It's very nice.

But it's not THAT dark in person. Pictures don't do justice!

I went in and looked at one today but it was under fluorescent lighting so I'm sure it would have amazed me even more in the sun.

Regardless, I will be purchasing one in a couple months =]
