Default Solar Orange

What do you think of the new 2007 350Z Solar Orange color? I didn't like it until I saw a freshly washed Solar Orange 350Z while driving past a Nissan Dealership this morning. Cool. Thanks.

Solar Orange is for homos!


JK, Its one of those colors you need to see up close to appreciate. Its got alot of pearl and flake in it. But from afar it looks like a creamsicle

It's a nice color, I love me some orange sportscars, but I would have done the color a lil different. Looks like Orange Sherbet from afar.

Might be a bit over the top for some, but I would love a solar orange vert slammed out on some black Work SP1s + some lambo doors to make it that much more outragous -- I think that would look so fly. VQ motoring has something similar on their website.

Vanity Plates would read...

Slap some black wheels on that ***** and your alright in my book. I think that color would look sick with alot of carbon fiber and some black wheels.

If they just made it a true orange like below it would be okay:


But for some reason, there is some hint of something that makes the colour look like some kind of sherbet ice cream:

Looks amazing in person. Not for me, but it's very unique.

I bought one last April and like the color. For most people, it probably takes some getting use to. I wonder if Nissan will offer it next model year?

I was thinking the same thing this morning when i drove by the nissan dealer and saw one shining in the sun. I have always disliked the color until this morning, now i don't think its that bad. I agree, some dark tint, tastefull carbon fiber accents and black wheels would look hot.

Most likely no. Nissan runs special colors such as

Brickyard
Liquid Aluminium
and Ultra Yellow

for just a year.

Which dealership?


I saw a couple when they first came out, and last week saw one on the road for the first time. I don't like it. I hope its a 1 model year thing.

I love the way it looks. I think its a very exotic color. Its gorgeous when it shines in the sun.
