Say goodbye to Carribean Blue and hello to some shade of metallic green. '04 model.

Unconfirmed, but I hope it's true. It will make my car more rare!

I think the cb will be rare as along with the base model, only 2% so out of 16,000 cars thats 320.

Is there any way to get the production numbers of each individual color combination yet? I know for a mustang, you can find out how many cars are EXACTLY like yours.That would be a neat little fact to know!

Supposedly the 350Z is getting that liquid silver paint similar to the auto show. Perhaps the G35c will have a similar option. The auto show paint was incredible but VERY expensive. I know the 350Z liquid silver won't be exactly the same, but a similar effect would be cool.

the liquid silver is available on the '04 maximas. from what i can tell, it doesn't look anywhere close to the 350z show car finish. if anything, its just a tad more lusterous than chrome silver...

I am sure this is a bad representation, but this is the nissanusa.com picture of liquid silver for the '04 Maxima. Looks like Chrome Silver to me. I was hoping it would be more impressive like the show paint. Perhaps in person it looks better.

Boo! I want them to keep Carribean Blue around! Blue is supposed to be getting more and more popular. I don't think it would make too much sense to get rid of it. I guess we'll find out soon enough!

16,000 coupes were produced for 2003 model. Roughly 10% are 6MT if I recall.

It will help bring a higher price when you sell it... but within reason. It is a pretty car, though!

One of the reasons I liked the Z a bit better was that I wasn't a fan of CB. Just didn't say "upscale sporty touring coupe" to me. What I think Infiniti would be smart to do would be to do a nice midnight blue color, maybe like that dark blue on the Lexus SC.

*shrug*

I was a huge fan of Daytona Blue, but now that I've seen my CB G35 in every lighting condition, I love it more. I love it when it rains. This color literally glows when it's raining.

But they did introduce a new color for 2004. Twilight Blue from the sedan is coming over to the coupe. CB is still staying in production.
