Threads like these make me wonder what the world is coming to. If you can't decide which color car to buy, what's going to happen when you want new wheels, a different exhaust, new tires? Are you going to let everybody else "design" your prized possession?

The answer you seek is here, in this post... https://my350z.com/forum/7088090-post54.html

Go there and divine guidance will take over.

had silver = loved it (easy to maintain / hides the dirt)
painted white = still love it (wash the car a little more often but not too hard to maintain either)
Painted white because its what I originally wanted. PPW wasn't available in my region when ordering so got the silver.

Think about YOUR goals with the car and what would you like the end result to be.

I think they made a clear 350z. You should try to find one of those, very rare.

You do realize you asked a question on a forum where everyone chose their color for THIER OWN reasons.........

edit: so you understand....you will get a different opinion from EVERYONE....How is that narrowing down your choice?

I heard Daytona Blue picked up all teh ladiez.....

If you want mature this is the wrong place to find it.
That being said if you can put up with detailing once a week
Black is the best imo.

Black is sexy, it really is, the only things that kept me away from choosing that color was

1. Any imperfections, swirls marks, dirt, ie is easily seen
2. Living in the desert, it will get hot.

PPW is also a beautiful color, but since it's a pearl color, I haven't seen a perfectly matched PPW when someone grabs a new kit and painted.

I went with carbon silver bc I liked the darker shade, and no, it is not hard to match it up, any good paint shop will be able to do it. It hides dust a lot better than any of the other colors, no green tint on it, what you have heard is not true about this color. Like another person said, it really brings out the curves of the Z. Sitting in broad daylight, I cannot describe how awesome it looks, and when it's cloudy and rainy, it almost has a matte silver look, def sexy as well. Look at the pic below, pure win. Grabbed it from another member, hope he doesn't mind.

Color doesn't matter, just make sure you have the Swang and Bang sticker and it'll be one sweet ride.

I agree. You really shouldnt' be asking strangers for this. choosing a color should be independent. if you want an opinion. the pearl white catches my eye the most (hence i own one) But it is also the most expensive paint when trying to get aftermarket parts painted.
