i say the colors very sexy on the bimmer. But IMO do something different, something that no one has. Why choose a factory color, unless u can't live without that color. That just my opinion. Since the Z is pimp, keep it pimp.

 

make your Z really unique and go with that wild lamborghini green. That will stick out like crazy and i have never seen it on any Z before. There arent even pix of the Z in that color.

 

The guy that is refurbishing the house across the street from me has a Laguna Blue M3 and while the car is very nice it is my personal opinion that the Laguna Blue is one of the most hideously ugly colors known to man. It looks like old playdo.

But as you see others think it is really nice. Just depends on what you like.

Personally I would suggest you paint you car British Racing Green. I bet no one has that color.



<edit>
Better representation of the BRG color in picture.

 

Hmmmm, guess you were right though. Dark blue looks even better:

 

Rick, are you going to paint over the carbon fiber stuff? If you aren't then that should narrow down the color choices. I don't think dark blue and carbon really go together. I personally would go with the Corvette C6 Daytona Sunset Orange (Like LeMans Sunset, but more orange than gold). Either that or a really cool green. Like the color of green tea ice cream, maybe a little brighter.

 

Here are a couple I made up about a year ago (just a little darker than the ones above):

 

with the Z i think the brighter the better. I saw a two tone red and blackZ that looked intense. Wish i could find the pic for you.

 

I can't find any good pictures. But Estoril Blue from the E36 M3 would REALLY look good on a small car like the Z. But depends on if you are painting your carbon fiber or not. If you aren't painting it I would suggest some kind warm color like a rich orange/red. Also that purple that was suggested from Lotus would be unique. Dunno how it would look on a Z but if it is metallic I bet it would be pretty damn sweet

i would say the java metallic black off the wrxs is one of the coolest colors.....looks black from a distance but when u get it in the sun alls u see is the gold flakes poppin out everywhere

 

That's exactly what I want to do when i win the lottery, only with some silver flecks in it. Gawd that'd be pimp.

 

I just had a custom 3 stage blue made up for my 97' 240sx that would look awesome on a 350z. I'll link a picture of it as soon as I take some pics of it.

 

what about the Interlagos blue from the new M5 and the M3...

I have never seen it in person, but in these pictures it looks great...

 

I painted my 00 civic si that color , but i put blue crystalline pearl over top of that and DAMN that is the best looking color ever , the paint was cheap $198.00 gallon Pearl was 146.00 For 2 quarts . It will paint the engine bay jams and all. Just my 2 cents . i have a pic but dont know how too post it .

 

+1 with Pearl!

 

Here we go , this is in the middle of it after my swap and junk . Also my dads 8 , just for kicks.

 

I go with something metalflake with tons of layers, probably a darker color. Something that really shows off Zaino.

 

ca ca brown

 

That's what my grandpa calls poopy.

 

dark metalic Cobalt Blue, wit some metallic flakes. thatd be tight

 

Laguna Seca all the way.....very unique color.
