hey whats up guys im pretty new to this forum but to day i was driving around and i saw a yellow 350z it had no plates and it looked brand new and we both exited and i looked closely to it and saw that it had brembos but the wheels looked differnt not so diffrent that it looked after market but it looked stock? anyone hear about that? the wheels looked nice but not as sporty as the track ones for 2004 just wondering if yall heard about a new color or wheels?

 

err no

 

Yur on a roll ...

 

Yellow is the rumored new color for 2005, but I didn't think the 2005's were supposed to be out yet. As far as I know Nissan hasn't made any sort of announcement about the new model year.

I am anxiously awaiting to hear anything about the 2005 models so I can place my order.

 

Yellow is def coming for 2005, I help out my inventory clerk at my store and we have a Yellow Touring Roadster on the way first week of Sept., so far only one ordered for NY Bidding starts at 5000 over sticker

 

excuse me 5000 over...bidding? oh well i guess this only happens bc there are idiots willing to pay it.

 

Will you trade in your current Z (if you have one)

 

bidding??? that is nuts... I hope the only reason anyone would be bidding is b/c they want yellow.... and even then... buy a "non-yellow" one for $500 over invoice, and spend 3K on a good paint job!

 

Actually I don't have a Z yet. I went to buy one in march but it turned into a huge fiasco with the dealer. I went in at the end of march knowing they would have to order it and they place thier orders at the beginning of the month. They swore they could locate one but ended up not being able to find it. In that time they missed the april order date so they told me it would be ordered the first week of may and it would be in sometime at the end of june or early july.

I called the dealer (the salesman had a lot of difficulty returning calls by the way) during the second week of may to confirm the car was ordered and to get the order number so I could track the car. They couldn't come up with an order number and only had the dealer order sheet, the one they fill out, as evidence that it was ordered. After a couple of weeks of run around (now in june) I ended up calling nissan to find out if it was ordered and they couldn't find anything to indicate it was. Nissan called the dealer who told them that it was ordered but couldn't confirm that, and that it would be in sometime in september. That would have been about right if they placed the order in july. They told nissan that if I wasn't satisfied that I could come up and get my deposit back, which I did.

At that point I figured I could go to another dealer and try to order a 2004 and get it in september, or I could wait another month or two and get a 2005. Now I am just waiting to hear anything from nissan about the 2005 models. If I am correct they announce the new model year regardless of wether or not they made any changes.

Anyway, sorry for the long and wordy post. I still get worked up every time I think about it. To answer your question, I don't have a Z yet, but I think I would have to see the yellow before I considered it as an option.

 

I saw that yellow Z yesterday driving up Sepulveda into LAX around 530

Stood out like a sore thumb

I doubt is was an aftermarket paint job, the car was stock.
could have been but I didnt think so.

With Nissan headquarters here in LA I'd bet it was the real deal
