no question i'd buy another SS. without a second thought. i love how it looks great with dark tint, cf and gunmetal accents (rims etc) and how it changes colors in different light. add the burnt orange leather to the equation and it's just beautiful. yum.

If I had a choice again, I'd still pick blue. I was deciding between red or blue, and although the red was hot... my DB beckons me

I love how my SB looks for the 5 minutes it's clean!

When I looking to buy a Z, I was trying to decide between SB and DB. The dealer happened to get in a SB Touring 6spd with every option, plus he gave me $2000 off MSRP, so I bought it on the spot.

In retrospect, besides the impossible maintenence of keeping SB clean, I have no regrets on choosing it. I still love DB, but I saw one the other evening parked at a TGI Fridays and it looked purple under the parking lamps! Made me even happier I went with SB!

If you couldn't tell, I love red. However, I saw a squeaky clean black Z with super dark tinted windows, and it looked sweet. It really caught my eye. I think the biggest problem with redline is that it screams, "Hey officer, if I'm not speeding already, I will be in a few seconds!"

absolutely love my DB. then again EVERYBODY loves the color they got.

if i were to do it all over again though, I'd probably go with Lemans Sunset. DB is gorgeous, but LS is just more "me"

Daytona Blue, again. Just traded in a '03 D.B. TrakPak for a '04 D.B. Roadster . Tinting the windows dark blue. Can't wait to pick it up. The 350Z looks great in any color, but I lean to the blue.
Cheers

Nah! I just love my LeMans Sunset! Bee-ut-tee-fo, child!

Have seen a few of the other colors in my 'little world --- all silver' --- but no LeMans! Thank you Jesus!

Told 'sales at dealership' -- sale another LeMans and your children will be cursed!

I also have the high chrome wheels - just writing about em makes my eyes water... sorry, I have to go... I need a kleenex...

Daytona Blue Baby! I originally looked at the silver but the Blue definately caught my eye when I saw all of them lined up at the dealer. Red was definately out. My other (10 yr old) car is red and that color is too hard to maintain. It tends to fade over the years.

Ahh I love that blue also. If I had to trade up I would go with blue with frost interior. I first seen a DB at the stillen show 2 years ago and was hooked. Nice car there Bluez33

DB caught my eyes when Z was first introduced, it's still my favorite color!!!!! I like how it brings out all the angle/curve of the car
Daytona Blue all the way!

(but seriously, Z looks good in any color~)
I love this car

Thumbs up

I'd still go with DB. If I didn't have a silver car already, a 2nd choice for me would be one of the silvers.

If I had to choose again it'd be PPW. It's such a neutral color but perfect for tuning.

Ever since I got my SS that's all I see around San Diego!!! What happened to all the CS, SB's, DB's and LS's that romped the city before I got my Z?

It's like a sick joke...I need to pull over all the SS owners and give them a big @ss whoopin!

Kidding aside, I love this car in all colors and don't blame folks for being attracted to one over the other.

Z= only car where all OEM colors are attractive.

If I would have done it all over again, I would probably choose SS or DB instead of my CS. Reason is because I have already owned a silver Celica, kinda tired of this silver already. Maybe in a few years my front bumper will be sandblasted enough for me to custom paint the whole car...New color :: hmmmm....Cricket green would proabably turn a few heads..

Bought my SB and love it, but the next one I buy may become British Racing Green (since color is not offered, will hire an expert paintbrush).

Default PPW All the way...

I'd stick with PPW...when cars age, the loud colors start to look lame. I still love the Z32 in pearl white...so I figure I'll prob love the Z33 in white when it's 14 years old as well (let's hope, I may have just finished paying it off by then).

Seriously though, I think PPW is a very classy color...you don't see too many around, and when it's clean it sparkles like no other. Too bad painting is so $$$.
