Default Just got back from Nissan HQ - NJ

Hey guys-
Thanks to Ethan, I just got a peek at a PPW Z. Tim (tbcz) and I went to Somerset NJ HQ and as we were still outside of the parking lot I see it!! It was parked right outside in front of the doors - amazing. The PPW is so nice in the sunlight - it literally sparkles...I only got a couple pictures on my camera, but Tim got about 10 - and I'm sure he'll be posting them as soon as he gets home. Anyone in Jersey/NY who wants to see it, you should definitely head out there - it's not even like they were trying to hide it!! Thanks to Tim for taking my friend and me up there - and thanks to Ethan for giving us the heads up...I'm ecstatic...

No, it's not metallic. It just has small flakes in it that sparkle and can only be seen in the sunlight. It's very nice. I loved it.

Default Z sighting

Zgirl I am really glad that you and your other Z friends were able to see the PPW Z...haven't heard much from you lately, did you get an order number for your blue track Z? When do you expect it to show up? I am still hoping to see my car in august, but it may end up being september with the majority of us preorders..whatever and whenever I just want to see my car or any 350Z for that matter.Still not waiting patiently.

I'm downloading images now...I'll post in another thread. Not that it's anything we haven't really seen before. If the pics aren't that great I won't bother.

Default Pikes Peak White = Aspen White Pearlglow???

When I first saw the pics of Pikes Peak White I thought it looked very similar to the Aspen White Pearlglow paint Nissan has been offering on other models the last few years. Now that it's confirmed to be a pearl paint, I wonder if it is the same paint code. If it is then it's a great color. Anybody know the paint code?

They have it parked right out front of the main doors, so I'm assuming it'd probably still be there today... It's not like they were trying to hide it or anything - it actually looks like they were TRYING to show it off. If you're not too far from there, you should definitely take a trip there and scope it out.

The car was locked, so there was no sitting in it or driving it or anything - just looking at it. I'm hoping that I'll be able to sit in the car before I sit in my own.

Well, good luck! Maybe there will be some people at HQ when you go there, and you might be lucky and be able to sit in it...HQ was deserted when we were there...

But you are going to have to give me directions, to somerset, so i check out the z. I still have yet to see it. I am sure everyone knows it wasn't at the philly auto show.
Are you still keep your eclipse?
Nate-
Yea, I remember talking to you...I'm still keeping my Eclipse for when I drive to school...If you PM me, I can give you directions to the Nissan HQ in Somerset. I wasn't the driver, so I'll have to look up the directions for you.

Default White

I guess you are new to this site and to the Z. The white is the same code/color/paint as the current Maxima. Check it out at a dealer near you.

It's way, way back in the boonies. You'd drive right by the place if you didn't know what you were looking for. By the way, so everyone knows, security is pretty tight; police roll through there regularly even on the Sunday afternoon when I went. Plus the security guard came out and chatted with me when I was looking at it. PPW is so pearly and creamy; it's really beautiful. I still want to know what became of this silver 350Z my friend saw driving around Somerset...
