I bought the color twice and would buy it again and again.

Is something wrong with your rear hatch? Looks a bit off.

Black or Blue ?
Dude,
I have a Black '04 350 with Nismo wing, Cat-back and Air-intake. This was and is going to be my first and last black car ever ! If your as clean as me and love a nice shinny vehicle, at all times then.....DO NOT BUY A BLACK Z!
This car I love and it takes a huge amount of time and effort to keep clean. Nothing looks better than a nice clean, shinny, black Z. Black sports cars look classy and great when clean,...when dirty and not kept up, they look like crap ! If you do get black...I only hope you keep it clean as much as you can.
Good luck !

Daytona Blue
I love the look of a black car but I will never own another one. Hard to keep clean past a day after washing and they are hot as hell in the summer.
DB was my first color choice but I ended up with PPW and love it.

There are no bad colors for the Z. My favorite is the DB, but that color is really not my style for a daily driver , so I went with Silverstone and I'm still glad I did. I wish my neighbor had a DB so I could look at one every day. If I get a second Z (and I definitely will), I will go out of my way to make sure I get a Daytona Blue. That is part of the point.
That color makes the car look more like a toy. It makes it look smaller, sportier, and possibly more exotic. And fun. I have already planned exactly which mods and which MrZipps headlights I'm going to put on mine, too.
All the colors are beautiful on the Z, but each one imparts its own personality to the car. The lines and curves of the car do the rest. There is so much history behind a Z-car, when I look at one, the metal and paint are only part of what I see.
But that awesome, highly flaked metallic DB paint sure does help.
