Default porsche arctic silver metallic

which, if any, nissan color would look closest to the porsche arctic silver metallic? That is the color I want my car, but I havent seen any pics that are true to the porsche silver and am having a hard time deciding which color to go with. I'm leaning more and more towards daytona blue (yea, another one).
Rapid responses would be appreciated, since I'm going to order my Z today!

that's what I thought the colors would be equal to as well but then I saw the pics of the chrome silver Z on the site here and it just looked so DULL! After seeing more and more silverstone pics I was starting to think that it was a closer approximation to porsche's arctic silver. Dont suppose anyone's seen em in person?

sweet and that's the chrome silver, correct? I think that's the color I am goin with then. I do really like the daytona blue, but I can't get over the fact that it feels like a fruit color, if ya know what I mean. Or at least a chick color. (I'm not knockin anyone who ordered it tho, just to save myself from THAT discussion!)

Well, Im back from Nissan of Vacaville...

1 ea chrome silver enthusaist Z on it's way for me, w/ the DVD nav.

I didnt realize leather wasn't an option on any model but the touring, so I had to settle for the carbon cloth. Oh well though, I have a lot of mustang hookups so I should be able to upgrade to some aftermarket seats later should I choose to go that route.

Thanks again for your help with my color choice!!

Congratulations cheap! I'm sure you'll be very happy with your choice. And about the leather, a "c-word" [Edit due to post below...hehe] job always looks sweet - so look forward to that...

Ahhh... now if only we could get the Z in Porsche's "Rainforest Green Metallic" and a tan leather interior, then I'd be in heaven.
