Hopefully your screen name is not because you are **** about keeping your stuff shiny and kleen.[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]
Just remember Black looks great, WHEN CLEAN.

Re: Silver or Black

silver...black shows everything: dirt, dents, scratches, etc. At least with silver, those things aren't as blatantly obvious as they are on black. Silver is low maintenance - like the girl who looks good, but doesn't need hours to get ready to go out and doesn't need your undying attention. Black is high maintenance - she is damn sexy, but she needs hours and hours to look stunning and lord forbid you don't give her enough attention. Question is which one do you want?

Re: Silver or Black

Yeh I can relate to that. Silver looks good anytime. Black needs some primping and preening and messaging and even persuading. Brother has Black. His Coupe is gorgeous but takes lots of his time.
I have silver(stone) because I'm too busy (or too lazy) to persuade. You're choice............[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]............

Re: Silver or Black

And when your out and all of your buddies are looking... WHICH girl do you want?

If you buy a minivan, low maintenance it what you are looking for. When you buying a G35, you want people to notice you and be impressed with your ride. Therefore, your going to spend a lot of time taking care of her and showing pride in ownership. Therefore....

Re: Silver or Black

It also depends on where your from... black can be EXTREMELY hot in the sun, especially with graphite leather.

Re: Silver or Black

Been there and done that on the black. Ditto on the silver, being too many on the road.

That's why I bought the DG. ;-))

Re: Silver or Black

I am actually in the same dilema...
What a horrible, disgusting dilema it is too!!! ...keeping me up at night and harassing my girl and buddies about it ...
Now they just say BLACK ... OR GREY... and thats it ...HAHAH..
I have seen both now in the showroom ... I am trying to decide between DG and Black .. black looks hot!!
Mind you,, it is placed in the center of the showroom with the aero kit and lights cast all over it .... which the DG isnt .. (no aero either) and off to the side of the showroom ...

So comparing them .. one with one without is harder .. black looks very sporty ..but alot of the lines are lost .. but that shows more taillights and front lights and the rims just bang out at ya...
As it stands right now I have the DG with aero on order.. nothin missing ..

I just wonder ... everyone is telling me DG ... I like it .. I like the color transitions on the hood and door and where light hits it and shadows in other places ...even when its a bit dirty.

Black .. well .. doesnt transition shades of black .. it is reflective of the light and everything else around it ..
IF IT IS CLEAN.. ... so thats the only pisser....
yes .. its HOT .. chicky boo's dig it for sure..

But at night the DG will darken up and when headlights go over the paint it will glare a silvery color...
as opposed to the black ...

The shape is not so definative either on the black .. but in a way more sleek ... and the brembo's would glow more than the offset of the DG

OH MY GAWD .. shoot me.. and fit me into 99atlantics trunk... (maybe not, I'm 6'3)

ANyway .. sorry to confuse you more..but listen buddy, I'm worse ... I can't sleep ...

Help.
Please..
Later G's
