bright silver vs. Diamond graphite

Hello fellow G35driver members,

I am currently in the market to purchase a 2005 infiniti G35x.

I just needed your point of view on which color do you guys prefer? Bright silver or diamond graphite. It seems that 1/2 of G35 owner's chooses diamond graphite.

Thank you in advance for your input

i believe it is brilliant silver not bright, but I think DG is more common and that's why more owners have chosen it, because the dealers stock more of them with different options, thus attracting more buyers.

Silver rocks. I've always had silver cars, if the left over G I bought was silver I would have been a happier man, but instead I have desert platinum (when did that become a color)

I may be mistaken, but I believe dg was the replacement for bs in 06. I do not think you can get dg in and 05, only 06+.

I have a 2004 G35x - Diamond Graphite

So, did they just not offer dg in 05?

I was looking at both colors when I was in the market of getting a car, but I ended up getting Diamond Graphite because I loved the way it looked. But it just comes down to personal preference.
