This may be a stupid question, dont laugh if it is... Heh.
I want a brand new 350z for my new car, brand new. Now if i buy this year or next, or the next, is there a place that will paint a car daytona blue?
I dont know much on paint jobs, sorry. I am wondering if it was only a color that was used on the 350z =P or if it is a colour that i could ask a business to paint the car? Just go down and say i want Daytona Blue?

I know i am stupid =P but shh...

any shop can paint your car for the right price. Just make sure they do good work. Look to pay around 3-5k for a stock looking paint job without painting under the engine. if you want the engine bay painted as well, look to pay around 5-7k

I'd just find a nice used DB instead of going through the hassle of paying out the nose to paint a new car. If you're dead stuck on a new one, check out san marino blue. It's not light like DB, but IMO I think it's better looking, and I drive a DB Z!

Yep. I would get a new San Marino Blue instead.

Dealer leftovers?

Guh, i am picky on this. I want brand new that no one has driven! Haha.
I really like the Daytona Blue. $5,000 expensive haha. Crappy.

Just noticed that you're from Canada too. Even though our dollar is on par with the US now, that estimate of 5-7k for a full on paintjob is probably low for the Canadian market. I went to a "reputable" shop in the lower mainland when I was inquiring about the price to change the colour on an old impreza, and I was quoted 8-10k CAD in late 2006. I really don't think you can be too picky. Either you're gonna have to get a used DB, or you're gonna have to get a new car and pay big bucks to get it painted (which imo isn't worth it).

I dont understand i wanted the newest model, but they dontmake them in daytona blue anymore. Or are you saying its just paint nevermind that haha.

JordanKay

Thank-you everyone!
Maybe next year there will be new colours?
How many colours do they usually replace each year?

I wouldnt expect many new colors for the '09 model. That might be the last for the 350z also :X

JordanKay

That is sad. Yeah i saw the concept idea... I realllly do not want the car if it looks like that Sorry but it makes me mad haha. I hope its slightly different from the 08. But not as gross as the idea for it. I have no problem with the back end. But the front throws me off. Why the last of the 350z? Are they going to go even higher with the number? Hah.

I was in the same situation. Was in love with DB. Ended up settling for the dark grey and its amazing.

JordanKay

When I was ready to buy my new '07 last year, my first choice was the DB. Couldn't find one in 6mt Enthusiast trim anywhere in the SE at the time. Got a pretty deal on a PPW locally and been loving it ever since.

Good luck!

I just had my door painted DB. It came out great, but the paint was pricey. I paid $100.00 US, just for the base coat.
