Glacier Pearl is a North America US/Canada name, 02/03 Maximas are Glacier Pearl as well as Muranos and Pathfinders. The paint code is QX1, weird how in Canada they use the opposite name although its the same color.

"blade", "gunmetal" and "kuro black" that sounds awesome....

What's up with "Silverstone" and "Brickyard"?? My grandma could have came up with more Z-related/ hip names than THAT!

And "Super black"?? WTF? I can imagine a bunch of dorks sitting around the table...hmmmm (five hours later) "super black it is!!" SUPER!!!! *does a little dance*
