Thumbs down yellow nice... lowering.... BLEH

The yellow exterior looks nice, very eye catching (as if 350s werent already), interior is ok... little too busy/tacky....

the lowering on the other hand.. downright DISGUSTING.... what a waste...

I really appreciate the post but 'don't like the yellow personally -
'don't believe in modding but keeping thing close to original.
Still it's neat to see what other's like.

Needs to be brought back to stock height, polished aluminum 18s, tinted windows, and the aero kit.

Well keep in mind this is AXIS Wheel's SHOW CAR, so they want it to be unique/different/custom/etc. And thats why they can spend the money on it.

As for the lowering, I agree its nasty, but I'm assuming/hoping it will look "correct" when they get their own wheels and tires on there.

Yellow is probably my favorite color for a sports car, ala ferrari, porsche, and lambo, and the color of this one isn't that bad, but combined with the bad slam job and gaudy interior, it's all over.

I love yellow, but I admit that it is a flashy color and you walk a fine line between gaudy and classy, so you've got to do it right. Yellow stock would be a start.

That Yellow is so ugly. Axis has a tendency of taking all the cars and painting them ugly Yellow. The interior with all the yellow accent has probably devalued the car.

I love yellow on sports cars as well. And I like the yellow Z on the strut tower brace. But. the other yellow interior and the slam job gotta go.

The exterior is AWESOME. The interior is the opposite of AWESOME. And painting the letter Z on the strut bar is, so far, the worst thing I've ever seen on a Z, even including the accident pics we have seen so far.

It's just not a good yellow, I still think a yellow Z would look gorgeous...plus I hope they didn't cut the springs.

I don't know what kit would lower the Z as much as it looks in the pic.

Default Yellow Z

I don't care for the paint or the lowering. It just looks gaudy insead of sexy. Also, the lowering? The Z is already down to 4.7 "s stock and I have to watch steep drive ways and high curbs. I would tear up my front end if it were lowered that much. And the color is too dark, Fly yellow on Ferraris is as dark as I can stand, I prefer a pale yellow. The car looks like a taxi. I don't like to criticize someone's ride, but the look ruins the car for me.

Default Interesting

If you have the money to waste I guess you can find ways to chuck it out a window.

I wouldnt want my Z any lower than it is now....

I dont like the color... but wouldnt mind a few classy Daytona Blue accents inside my Z.. but not almost every damn surface.

I want a cover for my Shifter.. it gets far too hot even with window covers on.

We need to have a Daytona Blue Z meet in Las Vegas!!!... that would be fine.. just fine!

My comments..
Means so little outside my timy mind.

Default ive never seen a bigger bunch of jealous people!

i remember a post someone had. a poll on what they would like to see on the 2004 Z's. and everyone all agreed that they would like to see yellow as a color. i think it looks awsome and id get that as a color - the interior. plus it would be unique. unlike the 10000 chrome silvers, 4000 daytona blue, and 3000 silverstone.id rather be 1 out of 2 yellow's.


just my opinion. dont mean to offend anyone

Default Ugly cars always tend to be unique...

No one else wants to touch their car, after they see a total butcher job. That car just has nothing going for it now except the engine. Yellow is a great color but all together that car is overwhelming.

The lowering job alone is enough to kill it, but no ladies and gentlemen it doesn't stop there, thats right if you call now you will also get riced out gauges and a macthing Z emblem on the strut tower. But act fast, supplies are limited.

No thanks I stick with my silverstone and the other 2999 people with good taste.

Chrome Silver = "I have no personality."
Silverstone = "I'm doing something different, I have DARK silver!"
Redline = "Classic color for a classic, reborn."
Brickyard = "A touch of fierce class."
Pikes Peak White = "A wolf in sheep's clothing."
Le Mans Sunset = "I take chances, and look good while I'm at it."
Super Black = "Gothic ferocity, with yet another touch of class."
Daytona Blue = "I'm just cool. Period."

Default I'm not offended

Don't sweat it, I wasn't trying to reply harshly toward anyone. Just expressing my 1st Amendment rights. It doesn't matter how many people have chrome silver it will always look classy.

I choose silverstone because at the time my wife was going to get my silver Xterra. Since then she got a blue passat and now I am trying to sell my Xterra. In all honesty the chrome silver with frost interior looks sweet. I wish that interior would have been available with silverstone.
