Damn SpeedRacer! Your ride looks spotless. Not at all to trash the other Z colors because they all have an awesome look but SB and DB have to be the best. The others run a close second but of course this is just my opinion and probably doesn't mean crap to anyone except maybe those with DBs and SBs. Lets see what ares comes up with.

 

Thanks! I'm pretty methodical about cleaning my car. I think my hubby worries about me sometimes. lol I'm just trying to follow in Dr Bonz footsteps with the Zaino obsessiong.

 

damnit I didnt have time, Ill have to do it tomarrow, but just a parting gift of my baby.

 

hehe, if you cant tell, the car is filthy in these pictures. and its not even a sunny day out, took these a few weeks ago.

 

^That is one bad ****. The "Night Rider" of all Z's.

 

Dude, at least clean up your front bumper if you're gonna post a pic like that.

 

My only two choices were DB and SB. Really, SB was a distant second on the Z, although if I'd have bought a G35C, it was going to be black because the blue in the G35C just does absolutely nothing for me.

I'd had three black cars in a row, including my Syclone which I'm going to keep. I just needed a break, plus DB is such a great color.

Blacks do look very nice when clean, though. I just like the DB a bit better, and wanted a car that looked cleaner longer.

 

Obligatory DB pic (clear bra, btw):

 

I'll be looking for that pic tomarrow ares. Thing looks like a beast with those bronze wheels.

Mannishboy- Your ride is lookin' smooth and damn clean. Do you also use Zaino?

 

Yes, but not anything near the number of coats the good Dr has on his (see Detailing section, if you want to see the full depths of Zaino addiction).

 

Get DB!

 

id probably pick black over blue. i loved blue when i first saw it, but now when i wash my car and its all nice and shiney, ... and 5 different shades of blue... all i do is

 

How bad is the paintmatch on DB between the metal and plastic parts? Bumper, gas cap, etc.

 

very.

none of my plastic parts are the same color. my fr. bumper, side skirts, r. bumper, gas cap, are all different colors ... and none of them match the body of the car.

 

Moroccan Mole- How long have you had your Z and what type of polymer/wax do you use? Thanks!

I think the later DBs were supposed to have better match, as they changed the paint process a bit. My front bumper looks good, and the back bumper does most of the time, but the gas cap match doesn't show up well because of the light angles. The back bumper also has moments when it doesn't look to match as well, either.

Generally, it isn't that bad, but in certain lights, it doesn't match. I'd look at some later cars that are on lots now if this is a big deal to you, though.

 

Do you think all of the DBs will have this mismatch? Will it progress over time and why would it do that?

 

I don't think it will get worse over time on a particular car. As I said, the cars being made now are supposed to be better, but I haven't looked at one on a lot in a long time so I can't say for sure.

It isn't horrible on mine, but you can see it at times. It doesn't bother me...much
