Question Are there some colors that are "young' colors??

I am curious as to whether there are some colors that are more appealing to the younger Zcar owners and some that are more favored by the older owners?
I am 55 and prefer Black, and both silvers. The others don't do much for me.
What are your opinions?:

i'm 22 and like the chrome silver and lemans blue.

I wouldn't think that there is a correlation between age and color of the car.

Go to http://www.brackethead.com/350Zsurvey/ and you can check the survey (color by age group), hehe. Thanks to Brackethead.

Here's the results:

Thanks for the plug Z Crazy!

I wouldn't have guessed White and Silverstone to have the youngest average ages.

No comment from me on Redline and 43!

Have you guys noticed the survey pre-order count keeps going up slowly but surely? 281, next stop..... 4000?

Talking Young at heart

I guess based on the survey results I must be young at heart because it has been a looong time since I have seen 33 (avg age) for Super Black.

I'm young (49) and my top two choices were Daytona Blue and Le Mans Sunset. Well, at least people tell me that I look young.

Cool

I have just turned 31 and have ordered a LeManz with burnt orange interior. I am not seeking attention but would like to have a unique car. I had seen an Acura NSX in LeManz sunset and similar color interior at an autoshow and fell in love with it. I think i will look just stunning cruising in the autumn sunset. Let's just say I will not mind turning a few heads

39 and Daytona Blue. Since this is one of the "young" colors according to the survey, maybe this will prevent me from turning forty?

Hey Black Z,

What year is your 240sx? I have a black '97, my first new car. It looks so good when it's clean. Which, when it was new, was always. But, as the years have passed, the times between washes has grown.

I'm 26, will be 27 when I get mine and went silverstone. Although, now that I have a garage to park in, keeping it clean wouldn't be quite as hard. But, I've had black for almost five years now, so figured it was time for a change.

Dave

I had a '95 240sx too...burgandy. Kind of along the lines of brickyard, but not nearly as deep and rich (and not metallic). Nice car, reminded me of a baby Lexus SC when i bought it. The four-banger was a little rough around the edges, but it had some *****.
