Ultra Yellow 350Z
2 Attachment(s)
OK, before anyone thinks I'm starting yet another Z vs. 8 thread, I'm talking colors here.
Saddened by the loss of Lightning Yellow, I was on my way to my local Mazda dealer to check out the new white RX-8s they've just received. However, before I could get there, something in the Nissan dealer next by caught my eye. In the showroom window glared a brand new Ultra Yellow 350Z. While Mazda has dropped yellow, Nissan has done just the opposite and has introduced yellow for the '05 model year. I love Nissan's ultra yellow! It's much darker than lightning yellow and has mica or metallic flakes as well. I was so taken with the color that the sales guy begged me to take it for a test drive. This was only the second time I have driven the 350Z, the first time was 2 years ago. I was quite impressed with the torque and growl of the exhaust. Very fun, and I can see why many people love the Z, I like it a lot. But aside from the torque, it really didn't feel any quicker than my 8. Anyway, I digress, I'm talking colors right. Being a big fan of yellow sports cars, I really have to say I adore the way the Z looks in ultra yellow. If I were buying an '05 car, the fact that Mazda dropped lightning yellow, and that the Z looks so good in ultra yellow to me, might have swayed me towards the Z. |
Those Z wheels look very close to the 8's!! :confused: Also...I hope you're not thinking of trading your 8 in???? :D

I have to agree, that looks awesome in yellow... and i usually dont like yellow cars.
|
I don't think that color is new. I've seen lots of orange Z's.
EDIT: Alright, it's not the orange one, but that color looks more orange than yellow to me. |
I saw an Ultra Yellow Z convertible at a Nissan dealer near my house. Nice car, and it was gone within a week.
|
That is sharp. I love both cars.
|
not too bad but i still think yellow is best on ferraris and porshces.

- Irish :cool: I first test drove a Z back in early 2003 long before the RX-8 was released. I liked it back then too, but really needed back seats. Once I test drove the RX-8 I knew it was for me, but haven't driven the Z again until now. I guess what really surprised me the most was that the Z didn't really feel faster, I thought it would given the big HP & torque advantage. The difference was very marginal, the main thing was the punch of torque down low. But I have to admit that I do have color envy, I love that ultra yellow! |
The Zed looks PHAT in yellow!
Actually, I suppose it's just okay, seeing as it's only a Nissan. :) |
The wheels do look a lot like our wheels :( oh well...umm..yea..it's ok in yellow, but our car is still purtier! :D
|
Morgan's right about the wheels. That is so weak. :p
|
The ultra yellow looks so much better than the lightning yellow. I've never liked the 8's pokemonish yellow.
|
looks pretty cool, almost like a photoshop
|
I am glad that Nissan reintroduced Yellow on the Z
I am glad that Nissan reintroduced Yellow on the Z, ..... even if it is on the chubby, unrefined, kid brother Z. :D

I saw one in person today parked next to an OZ lancer. They were both the same freakin yellow. Sorry, but I think Mazda's yellow is much better...

Well, the local Nissan dealer is selling a hardtop yellow 350Z. I might want to check it out before it disappears.

All that I said is that I think that the Nissan yellow is one of the coolest looking yellows around. And most people seem to agree. I dont understand why some people here say oh well if it is on a z it must be crap. People like this are not car enthuasist, instead just children whos parents bought them very expensive toys. I love the eight and I love the Z. Both yellows are nice.
