Default Will There Be A Dark Blue Color For 2004 ?

I thought that I read somewhere about 2 new colors for 2004, and that one from 2003 would be deleted ?

My boss, owns a bad *** BMW-M5, and the color is perfect for the car, dont know the name, but it looks like a deep midnight blue, and he has tinted windows, what a mean car

no, there wont, there is 0 rumors about ANY form of blue.

silver, most likely, maybe another color like green or yellow or anything, but another blue? no.

yeah a dark blue is great, the lightness of the blue is what changed me from blue to black. but its what we got.

PS. best blue ever IMO is on the civic SI, EPB.

Daytona Blue is too bright for my tastes.... Midnight blue would be awesome! I would be up all over that like butter on bread!

I like the blue on BAt's Celica if anyone's seen that.

It's funny that you say that because I was fortunate to have both DB and Electron Blue. Here you go. I think they are very close in color. Luckily I had a car n between otherwise I would have went with another color. The Honda paint was better quality though.

Maybe you were reading about the G35 coupe somewhere? Infiniti is adding the Twilight Blue (v. dark) to the coupe for next year.

If anyone has seen the midnight blue used on the skyline, that would be a PERFECT color on the Z IMO.

Nissan already has a kick *** dark blue in their repertoire. I had it on my 1993 Nissan Hardbody Kingcab. I don't remember the exact name of the color, but it closely resembles the color on that 996 Carerra above. I remember getting some stereo work done at the time and the installer asked me if the color was custom....that's how smokin' it was.

Agreed. I saw an 03 Maxima not too long ago, and it was the dark blue. All I could say was, "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm."

You guys are referring to "Majestic Blue" paint code BW9 which is offers on the 02-04 Maxima, should have been the 350 as well. Now th blue colr form 93/94 that NIssan offered was "Sapphire Blue" paint code TK3 which was a great color as well.

Ahem, as I mentioned above, it's called 'Twilight Blue' in Infiniti-speak.

It's also available on the Murano. I've already called numerous times and told them that the day they bring out a Z with the dark blue and a neutral interior, that it would be the day I traded in my Z for it.

The dark Twilight Blue is on the Sedan, it just appeared on Infiniti's website, dropping the Emerald Mist they had before. I'm buying one in August/September and I will be trying to sell my wife on the new blue if its available, it will be her car. They may be in short supply then, so its a crapshoot on the exterior color. The accessories and specific options I want is the kicker in the equation, they come first, then the color.
