Cool I can't stand it any more!!!

No, I'm not cancelling my pre-order, but I've finally decided to migrate from the "Dark Side", AKA The "other" board that as of this week has degraded into one of the biggest piles of steaming s**t I've ever witnessed. That's saying a lot coming from someone who's seen several of their threads deleted as a result of viscious exchanges with trolls. It's nice to see that peace is the order of the day over here. Now if only we could get ZISME to make the move...

Greetings to all of you who don't know me, as well as the familiar names from the "other" board. I look forward to sharing the next few of months of anticipation with you.

Welcome, fellow future Dallas Z-owner! Glad to see you've seen the light. I stopped posting on that "other" board a while back. It's totally useless these days. This site is much better, lots of intelligent stuff here, and little flaming. All for Z freaks like us!

Well, I would LOVE to, but I'm living in a dream world... I already have the leather, and I have the side air-bags, so I think it would be a waste to change that. Maybe in the next couple years, but we'll see what kind of money I run into But if anyone is looking to trade their Burnt Orange for Charcoal, I'm up for it

Burnt Orange in a Daytona Blue. You might want to photoshop that before you even dream about it. I don't know about that color combination. On the other hand, I'm getting Black/Charcoal ... yea I'm ready to fry in those seats.

Here's a link posted by Ethan a couple days ago. This is what it would look like...(if the burnt orange actually are orange...)

Unfortunately, a bad move for Nissan was not offering the burnt orange in the daytona and the chrome silver. Oh well... Like i said before, anyone wanna trade? hehe

I've just made the move too. In fact, for a couple weeks now mostly all I did on that board was use the search facility to find posts by ZISME, ignoring everything else

Cool

Thanks for the welcome, guys and gals!

BTW, bgerber911, the fact that Nissan passed over the obivous blue/orange combo is mind-boggling to say the last. For anyone familiar with Primary, Secondary and Complementary colors, the Daytona Blue/Burnt Orange is one of the most logical choices as evidenced by the Color Wheel.



Colors that sit opposite of one another on the Color Wheel are considered complementary. Just an FYI...

But on custom builds, as these 350z's are, I don't see why they dont off you what ever color combo, as crazy as that combo might be.
Butt ugly? I wouldn't go that far, but, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just like everyone thought the daytona was going to be butt ugly - then look - shocker...If you want to criticize other peoples opinions, then you're in the wrong place. You could've said something like "I, myself, wouldn't choose that color combo because it's not my personal taste/preference". But saying that it is butt ugly is taking it a little more on a personal level. Just my opinion.

Default Complimentary?

Ack, probably my two LEAST favorite color combos are red & green, blue & orange. YOu could possibly get away with a dark blue and orange, but with that color blue? Ack.
