Idk, the Silver just doesn't do much for me! It's usually the PPW or Daytona Blue that I drool for! The occasional red slips in... but it depends, the red has to have a body kit to look good in my opinion. I don't think I'll settle for anything other than those colors... But there are always nice deals on some silver ones, which is why I thought they may have produced more of them.
I got the pikes peak pearl white and I like it but it was this color or nothing only one for sale in my big city that wasn't a DE model. Im in a city pop of 3 million and only one was for sale and thankfully all the other buyers before got denied for it lol. The white just gets super dirty and dirty whenever you touch it with black hands but it looks nice anyway
You say it like it's a bad thing the DE had years of awards it's a very good engine.
Well the HR is 80% different engine internals and stronger internals so yes I'm not going to buy a DE with the worse motor of the 2 with less power,oil issues, uglier interior, uglier hood uglier tailights so to me the HR is just an all around better car. The 350z should have been this motor and design from the get go. Alot of people talk smack on the 350z because the DE Isn't as fast so they say that 350z are slow. I raced a DE with my A/C on and beat him. If Im spending the money why wouldn't I buy the better of the 2? The VQ platform is great forsure I used to hate 350s until I seen and drove the HR. I know it's not a huge difference exterior but the motor is. It was like finding a unicorn though my 2 million population city only had 1 HR for sale. After driving this car I'll never sell it and love these cars alot.
I don't like to go off of racing because it's 2 different drivers but all you have to do is look at the registry of recorded 1/4 mile time and you will see the same range for both engines. Stock for stock the HR is less than half a second faster, that's driver error. The HR has oil gallery issues, nothing is perfect. I agree with the interior but that's what aftermarket is for. In stock form both are lame IMO.
