Default Carbon Blue Available ?

I found some Carbon Blue 350z's in searches, a very dark Ocean kinda'
Blue, but the 370 seems to have the Blue with a Teal or Turquois
mixed into the paint.


Is the Carbon Blue available for the 370's or would it have to be a re
paint to get it done, or do my eyes entirely deceive me ?


I love the 350 Carbon Blue, but the 370z Blue is not
something I'd want, I'd move on to a Black , White , Silver, Gray.....

I really can't tell from this color card, but possibly, I'll look
it up and see if it's what I'm Talking about, might be, at least
it looks to be pretty dark.

I just looked up some cars with 'Daytona Blue' , that would be the color I'm looking for
, the Monterey looks to be the only blue for the 2009, not the color I like.
Thanks, now I know to look up the factory colors, and go from there.
I like gray , black, white, burgundy (if they have it) , but my favorite would be
the Daytona. A repaint that nice in Daytona, would probably be around 3000, I'm guessing....:shrugs:

The 2013 370Z had a Midnight Blue color option.

Nailed it !! If it's not the exact color I saw on some 2008's , it's
close enough.
Now I have to decide on waiting for my budget to allow for a 2013
or newer as opposed to a 2009 2010........


I'd also like to stay away from light interiors, and
two tone interiors that I see on so many of them, I might
need to go leather to get a somewhat dark, single shade interior (seating) .

I had a black Stealth , many years ago, what a beauty, but keeping it
clean....argggg.
That's clever getting silver, especially if the primer (if they still use it)
is gray ? ha ha ....cool.
I do like silver and gray , without the fin, the back takes on a Mercedes
touch, without having to having to drive one.


By the way , when does that spoiler actually have an effect , after 80mph
120?

Daytona blue is still the best blue IMO.

I had a daytona blue and loved it but believe the San Marina blue that looked black in the shade and blue in the sun was my favorite blue, but yeah it might be work like a black car to keep clean. The Lemans sunset on the otherhand is perfect for hiding dirt but fantastic clean.
