Tidewater was one of the colors I was considering. Other than on the color ball samples at the Orange County Auto Show, I still hadn't seen Tidewater "in the flesh" when I purchased my Liquid Platinum EX35. But one week later, when I was at my dealer to drop off the title for my traded vehicle, there was a Tidewater EX35 being prepped for the sales floor. I absolutely hated it! Far too much green. It really should be called "Ocean Cesspool". I can't imagine anyone liking this color.
The color where Infiniti blew it is with Lakeshore Slate. Lakeshore is offered on the G35 sedan and it is GORGEOUS! I almost bought a Lakeshore G35 (before hearing about the forthcoming EX35). But, sadly, Infiniti chose not to offer it on the EX35.
BTW, Blue Slate is too dark!! Not one I'd pick either. Of the available colors, Liquid Platinum is the best. My next choice would be White.
