I do like the SilverStone better than the Chrome. but if you don't want the same color as everybody else Get The BRICK If you have not seen it in person, you have to before you Deside.

If you want one right away, I'd go with one of the silvers. They would probably be much easier to find with more of the options you want. I know people are starting to have a hard time finding 03 models the way they want them.

But if you can find one, I'm partial to DB.

Brickyard! Definately Brickyard! As chazzg said, you have got to see the color up close & personal. All the colors look great but brickyard........oh baby! Touring model as well. But 350zspeedracer is probably right about finding one in any model with everything you want. I got lucky.

I see Brickyards for sale all the time in NJ and PA, but it depends on what model you want.

I know York PA has one in Track.... Freehold Nissan has one but not sure on what model.

Personally, I don't think Brickyard looks like a sports car color.

i agree. i think that's the last color i would get (not to offend you brickyard owners). the lemans looks really good when it's nice and sunny out...it sparkles!! but, again, go get a silverstone one! haha.

now now...you don't want the moderators to come in and think we are fighting and ban both of us!! haha.

your car look nice...especially since it's clean...but, i think it appears dull in a lot of photos. but...i was wrong...i would take that before a white one! haha. i'm not a fan of any white car. but, your car does look nice.

Default HAHA!! Good for you

I'm hoping to also sell my BMW so that I can finally pick my color. But It looks like Brickyard for me. I was contemplating about the silverstone for the longest time, but finally decided to go with the brick.

GOOD LUCK!

I'm pretty much leaning towards silver or daytona blue....i was just wondering what everyone thought would look the best. i can't wait to go car shopping next week I saw a z today on 295 and it seems like a week or two is just to long to wait!

If you would like to be rare then I would say Redline. I have not seen one in person or have seen many of them from pictures of meets and such. But no matter what color, the Z still looks good.

I am biased toward Pikes Peak or Daytona Blue.

I originally felt the same way about brick as somebody mentioned here...that it looks dull sometimes. It actually does, when the sun isn't on it. But it comes to life in the sun like no other color, I think. So I grew to like it more and more, and then bought it. I like it a lot. It is not a color for everyone, but it is the bomb!

Interestingly, I also liked the blue (and all the other colors!). But I have never seen a blue one on the road in NJ. And I do see a lot of other colors. No point to that, just thinking out loud.

PS. I almost went the conservative route and got a silverstone (I think the chrome silver looks too unpainted. Kind of like brushed aluminum). Even though every color Nissan sold is great to look at, I'm glad I went with a little riskier choice.

I've actually seen a blue and red one in LBI where i stay for the summer....they are the only two on the island that are residents as far as i know....I just got back from the dealer and they had a leman's sunset z. The guy told me that they only get z's in when people order them and it takes 8 weeks I need my car in 2 hehe...hopefully i will find one at cherry hill nissan when i go looking next week. Oh and yea i like brick too....this is tough
