What color should I get guys?

[NissanZDreamer]

I just can't make up my mind! Soon i'm going to sand my whole Black 300Zx and then repaint it another color! There are like a TRILLION scratches sap spots scrapes you name it! These are the colors I was deciding to put on my 300Zx. Give your opinion on which color I should choose for my car!


Ultra Red
Cherry Red
Deep Blue Pearl
Ultra White


Thanks for the suggestions, NissanZDreamer

Never seen a deep blue pearl Z32. Closest I've seen was Lando's TT. That thing was pretty though. I think that would be the prettiest, but CRP is always a good color for a Z. What color is it now?

[NissanZDreamer]

It is Ultra Black Pearl

[NissanZDreamer]

And do you know where I can find a picture of "Lando's TT"?

[Ace2cool]

Sorry, I forget not everyone has always been here, lol. He used to be a mod in this section.

[NissanZDreamer]

Yea, people come and go. Too focused on their Z's than the site. Cool color! And I love the color Cherry Red Pearl, if I had ultra red here in Waxhaw,NC all of the Police will be like ooh! Lets get him! They are STRICT on speed here in this little city. One pulled up behind me 2 days ago, I was going 50 in a 45 because the truck was my guinea pig. But as soon as we both seen him we slowed down fast! Cant miss them, most of them are in the 2006-2012 chargers. Thx 4 showing me that pic of his color.

[NissanZDreamer]

OOPS! Did it twice.

[Ace2cool]

Fixed it.

Also, my grandma lives in Waxhaw. Well, used to. She just moved just across the state line to SC.

[NolimitZ32]

BMW Techno Violet Metallic or Carbon Black Metallic. I have a massive hard-on for both of those, both of them are incredibly sexy colors and will blend well with the black engine bay and are not INYOURFACELOOKATMECOMEGETMECOPS!!! Oh and did I mention they are super sexy.



If I ever get around to it I am very likely going to paint mine Carbon Black Metallic.

As for nissan production colors my favorites are the Deep Purple Metallic and Sapphire Blue.


.....Anyone see a pattern? lol and how I wish my e39 was CBM (416)

[NissanZDreamer]

Yea, Ace, Waxhaw has a larger elderly community. But it is the birthplace of Andrew Jackson! (Our 7th President) But anyways Ive always dreamed of owning a Copper Nissan 350Z since they came out in 2003! When I was a kindergartner we had a book fair and I seen the coolest posters hanging up on the wall and I seen it! A 2003 Copper Nissan 350Z poster! So I think i'm going to go with Le Mans Sunset Metallic color from the 350Z on my 300Zx the code is A17.

And thanks for getting rid of that 2nd post. And South Carolina has the CHEAPEST gas in the USA! I LOVE the prices!!! Premium is like $2.19 a gallon!

Pretty dang funny man the police in Waxhaw are CRAZY when it comes to the speed limit!

[NolimitZ32]

Personally I am not a big fan of wildly bright colors on cars especially the Z32. and thanks for making me feel old as a dinosaur s***, in 2003 I was applying to colleges. FUUUAAAAAAAA!

[Ace2cool]

Hahahaha. I'm with Anton. I'm not the biggest into the bright colors. And the A17 code actually looks more like this:



What you posted is a custom pearl job. My vote if anything is on the table is DPM (LP2). But out of the original list, I'd go for the subtly bright extra dark blue. Trust me, it gets a lot more compliments than OMGHEREITCOMES bright.

[DCaff300ZX]

Well, obviously I vote for CRP but I REALLY liked that violet version Anton posted, and Lando's Z was a really nice blue.
So, final vote is the Techno violet/sim, CRP, then that deeper blue.

[DCaff300ZX]

Oh, and Super White is possibly the best color for our cars since it highlights the dark areas best and also shows her curves. I've had three times the people stop and admire the Swite NA when she was running than my CRP TT, EASY.

[NissanZDreamer]

Ok then your right copper is too bright for this wonderful creation of mankind. Sorry for making you feel old NolimitZ32, just telling about my life. SO DPM (LP2) it is! Thanks for all of your opinions!

[Ace2cool]

Yusssss! LP2 is my fave!

[NolimitZ32]

I wanted to do LP2 or LX0 but seeing the BMW CBM in person makes me

[Ace2cool]

The BMW doesn't photograph well though. It's absolutely stunning in person, but looks kinda blah in photos.

[NolimitZ32]

Exactly, I've found it to be the opposite with the LP2 though, its more bland in person than in quality photos, this is why I decided against it.

[NissanZDreamer]

LP2 Looks AMAZING! Your right! It's also the rarest factory color for the Z32.

[NolimitZ32]

It is, but I highly suggest you seek one out to see it in person because I was actually disappointed when I say one, its a pretty color no doubt, but it is not as vibrant as it looks in pictures.

[NissanZDreamer]

Ok,I will seek one out.

[DCaff300ZX]

Good luck finding one...I've only seen one around here posted on cl twice and we have tons of Z32's around here.
I say just do it if you like the color, as you will most likely be happy with it...my Honda is actually pretty damn close to the LP2 color, more like the violet sim Anton posted. I can see why maybe someone might say the color isn't so impressive as photos can be, which are usually enhanced as I have also done, but really it's ALL about the light at the time, clouds, direction, etc. as to how it looks at any time to the eye. It can look dull blackish at times, and has to have a bright day and brighter sunshine to make the whole purple/pearl effect happen or otherwise you see just tinges and splashes here and there where light hits.
LOVE your choice, DO IT!
