Was that for real?

I hope it looks better in person....

I heard the Yellow was coming out...but not this lime.

So is the Yellow, Le Mans Lemon?

I wouldn't be surprised. Slap some graphics on the thing and it will look like something out of Fast and Furious.

Not my style though.

Nissan doesn't typically use that font. I dunno if its real. They tend to stick with more sans serifs than a serif.

That color is ugly, it's too bright of a green. Something like a BMW Forest Green would look good.

Second, I don't think Nissan should put yellow on the Z. Why? Because the Z is a relatively tall sports car and yellow doesn't work well in that condition. Why do you always see very low profile cars offering yellow? Because it looks right on them.

GOD, I hope that's not real...I still think yellow is passe' or beat as we say on the streets a nice racing green or a dark blue/green semi-pearlescent would've been nice...YELLOW..can you say AUDI TT...ugh!

That looks like a car model from a video game.

I personally loved the color. I'm pretty skeptical that it's real though.

Not real.
Unless they are discontinuing Le Mans Sunset. You never name two colours the same like mc350z said...should call it "Lime Rock" .

I really liked it, too. But then, there's alot wrong with me mentally. I think I would actually consider that color if it was available. But I wouldn't have it done aftermarket.

Yeah there's no way that is real.

How many professional advertisements do you know that end with "...that's just plain SICK"

Nissan uses Verdana font.

And that vid looks fake.

That vid was made in about one hour.

So of course it's not going to look real.

It was all in fun. Mainly to see what people thought of the color.

I mean jeebus...the name alone gives it away! "Le Mans Lime" a.k.a LEMON LIME?? HARF!

I have a higher quality version cooking...but I am moving on to something else for you all to tear apart.
