I am really torn between this and the blue. I think I'll actually have to see both in person. Or at least see the black one in pictures taken by Larry Chen.

I'm not going to lie, black looks awesome on this car. However, I'm not all about that that up keep. If you don't take care of a black car properly the paint is going to look like crap in a just a few years.

That goes double for us that live in southern states. My E500 looks like trash on the outside, but inside it looks brand new lol.

OMG why did you post this now I'm undecided on what color I want for my Z. This black diamond is a whole new level of gorgeous! Imagine driving along the coast on a gloomy day, watching the reflections of your surroundings reflect off this car's paint job.

Definitely Black Diamond with Red Interior and Red Calipers MT transmission in Performance Spec will be FIRE!! 100%

Nissan black is the worst too.

i swore i'd never buy my gtr in black......yet i now have a GTR thats black on black on black. however, it's 100% clear wrapped. if it would do a new Z in black that would be the route i go. makes a world of difference.

Black is my go to color. It's definitely not a color for everybody..
All colors will scratch and swirl the same. It just easier to see on black. Although a pain, it also makes it easier to see where to polish.

I would ppf the whole car this time. Swirl marks will be a thing of the past with self healing tech.

I have a black 370 Z and I was concerned about every speck of dirt and dust showing. So even though it's in a carport I put a cover on it. Throughout the whole year of lockdown I never washed it and at the end of the year it looked as clean and dust free as the first day. With a water shortage on the west coast this is absolutely the best solution because you rarely have to wash it and it stays nice
