i adore black, but it's next to impossible to keep clean and swirl-free. five minutes after a wash it looks unclean again.

i absolutely love my ppw, but whoever said it's easy to maintain is wrong. the best colors to hide dust/dirt are the silvers. white gets really dull when it's dirty....but ooh, when it's freshly washed and waxed, my baby SHINES.

with that being said, san marino blue is THE most alluring color, in my opinion. if it was available in 06 i definitely would have brought it home, even though i'm sure it's just as difficult to keep clean as super black and magnetic black.

Magenetic black looks the best clean but is a pain to keep it that way.I bought a Z cover from nissan and one of those california dusters its made life alittle easier.

That color is really sharp! Wish they had that color in 06...I might have gone with it. But I gotta say in an unbias way I love my silver alloy...easy to keep clean and looks great on the Z.

PPW -- go look in the "colors" section in MEDISHARE and go to PPW threads. See how many people say "I wish I had picked the PPW over (insert color here)"

I was debating between black and san marino blue for my car and ended up going with the san marino blue and I'm very happy I did. I was always a fan of silverstone too.

I like all of the colors except the SanMarino Blue...no offense to anyone

Nothing beats a CLEAN black car...but its got to be CLEAN!

The Solar Orange I think looks awesome, But I prefer having a base color like silver or black and having accent colors for the accessories versus the whole car being an accent color

That being said, Silver Alloy and PPW are my faves..so clean and elegant, respectively

Any shade of silver.

For me silver is a sports car color. That's why most manufactures web sites use silver.

Nice piece. I'd recommend this for the 07's. By popular demand, one of the silver tones is what most Z owners choose. If you want to stand out get one of the more exotic colors. In the end, the Z makes the car.....not the color

both my z and my daily suv are black... amazing color when clean so if your getting a Z you have to have some respect for your vehicle and keep it clean the way it should be.

I usually go for the "off" color or the wildest available. Solar Orange is just too much for me though. I would get Carbon Silver.

my opinion is who cares what others think. if you like the color on the car, get it.
