Default Red Z's???

Just wondering how many members drive a red Z? I see tons on silver, and grey. It seems like if there's ever any good body parts for sale it's for a silver or gray lol.

I looked for a red Z before I bought mine. Wasn't one within 200 miles. I wonder how many were made in Red?

Nissan doesn't publish sales by color, trim level, etc so there's no way to know with any amount of certainity.

Based on sightings, I'd definitely agree with you. I still see a lot more of them than all other colors combined.

When I bought my 08 NISMO, there was a black one and a red one. I was happy with either, but the wife didn't like the red. Wish I would have got the red now, swirls FTL

I wanted to get a San Marino Blue 350Z, but when I went shopping, the bottom fell out of the economy, the car market almost ceased to exist and they were just starting to introduce the 370Zs. The only 350Z they had left was a brand spanking new Nogaro Red Touring. It didn't hurt that they hadn't sold a single car in 3 weeks and only wanted $24,500 for it. I talked them out of the $500 "special paint" premium, got full KBB trade-in on my Mitsubishi Eclipse and 0.5% APR for 6 years.

I've learned to really like my red car. The thing still looks new and it's only got 22K miles on it. So yes, Red ftmfgdw!

I'm willing to bet that 50% ~ 60% of all Z33's are some sort of Grey or Silver. The car had 5 shades of Silver/Grey over it's 5 year run and it was released during the peak of the 00's "Silvermania"

I wasn't a fan of my redline when I got it. I wanted the San Marino blue or solar orange but couldn't fine one at a reasonable cost or without 150k miles on it. I bought my 03 with 100k for 8400 earlier this year. Never wrecked and the guy was having a baby. So I lucked out

This is one of the cleanest red ones i've seen. Your silver one looks just as good imo.
