I know it's been said before, especially by me, but I think this car would benefit greatly from a spectrum of earth tones. British racing green, a deep blue or even purple, a muted sea foam green, some kind of bronze or gold even.
Agree big time. These are the forgotten colours.

I probably said before, bring back the Z family colors over the 50+ years - BRG, gold, Sunset Orange, Daytona Blue, etc. - you could have twins in the garage, old and new.
LMS and Daytona Blue were my two favorites on the 350Z. Those were DAMN good colors.

Purple would definitely look good, as well as some shades of green *cough* Millennium Jade and Midnight Purple *cough*. All those old ass colors like browns, golds, and whatnot can stay buried in the past. They just don't look good at all.

A teal like the color used on the Wrangler might look pretty dope.

Here are some slightly different versions since I really don't know what it looks like under studio lighting and it's different screen to screen.

Those photos of yours make the paint look almost solid, no real sign of pearl - is that the way it seems in person?

Looks very very solid up close, no pearl. Should be identical on the Z. It’s fine I like it as is, less chance for oxidation.

But wait, here’s the sticker. Hmm, still don’t see any glitter, maybe in name only, referring to the clearcoat as ‘pearl’

Beautiful. How this color gets so much hate in the forum is beyond me.

Probably because it looks like shiny primer.
