nordberg Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 I don't think I've ever seen on in chilli red on the road. What's the consensus? Not the best colour for a Z? Quote
codlord Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 There was a colour poll a while back: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... viewresult Does not look like that many people voted, but red came out lowest with only 1. I think the red can look great, but just not to everyones taste. I love the gunmetal and the blue but looking at the poll results so does everyone else! Quote
nordberg Posted April 6, 2006 Author Posted April 6, 2006 I've been offered a red one at an absolute bargain price. I just don't want to be stuck with an unpopular colour when I come to sell it...and as I haven't seen one I'm trying to gauge opinion... Quote
Guest prescience Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 I think it looks superb and no that's not my car in my avatar - I have GM. As the cars seem to pop up more and more, that exclusivity is not to be sniffed at. Im sure you'll get a few more positive responses here too Quote
Chesterfield Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 Yes it was a colour we (myself and the missus) were interested in. But have never seen one. The car we sold to make way for the Z was red, and to be honest I think it looks very nice. Just we fancied a change, so Blue it was. I think its more just rare, rather than unpopular. Quote
Removed Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 saw a couple on the road and very close up too, imo it looks AWESOME! B)B) Quote
Guest prescience Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 yes mate, the ONLY ONE in SPOTTED was by you http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... hilli#3731 Quote
nordberg Posted April 6, 2006 Author Posted April 6, 2006 Stop it! Stop it! You're going to convince me to buy it!!!! Quote
lomoto Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 Chili is a great colour, if I didnt get my Sunset that was my next choice... Only trouble with car colours I always find ,is what ever colour you plump for within a couple of weeks of ownership you wish you had jumped the other way Only exception to this was my last car a black one , didnt want a black car and hated it until I got rid !!!

WoREoD Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 I think it looks better in the flesh than the pics. Ting-Tong's got one but not sure if he posts here. (Not is bright as Ultra Yellow though! - I wanted a white one but n/a from Nissan UK) Quote
codlord Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 Anyone know what those six-spoke alloys are in the first and second pics of TheMinel's post??? I have been looking for some six-spoke options for when I get my Z. Quote
Derek_ZR Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 I saw a red one in Blackppol about 2 months ago - it looked great. Quote
Jacko Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 Anyone know what those six-spoke alloys are in the first and second pics of TheMinel's post??? I have been looking for some six-spoke options for when I get my Z. The first ones are the new Rays alloys that are on the new 06 model I believe, not sure about the others.... Quote

Oops, no I meant TheMinel's second post, these wheels: Quote
Liam's Z Posted April 6, 2006 Posted April 6, 2006 Never ever seen a Chilli on the road, except for the one I test drove over a year ago which was being sold privately... Lovely colour imo , very rare and unique.... tbh probably more GT4's out there Quote
Jacko Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 I've never seen one..... but looking at those pics, definitely suits the Z.... Looks especially good in some of the roadster shots. Feel a commoner now with the Azure Quote
Removed Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 not sure what those wheels are... pics come from an owner on 350z-tech, when i have time I will try and get the name of them (but don't think they are the best brand out there otherwise I'd recognise them ) Quote
codlord Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 not sure what those wheels are... pics come from an owner on 350z-tech, when i have time I will try and get the name of them I have found the person who owns it following your tip-off! - 04RedlineZ. Sent him a message asking him for the details... Quote
codlord Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 good stuff now vote for my car will you Errr, what vote is that then? (i'm new here...) Quote
codlord Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 Got a reply: Ruff Racing 279 in gunmetal (18" in pic) Look good but slightly dodgy name! Quote
Removed Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 yeah might possibly weigh a good tonne or 2 and VOTE FOR ME HERE! (and follow the 350z-tech link) http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1529 Quote
