H5 Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 How bizarre, just gone back to the front page and all are there in full glory! Looking lovely Colin, enjoy it!! Get it to some shows in the new year...... Quote
M13KYF Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 very nice Colin. Dont envy trying to keep that one clean Quote
James B Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Love it! I'd never buy anything in white though. Always looks filthy by the time you get it to the end of the road! Having said that, she's such a beauty I'm sure you'll be waxing her every other day. Gratz matey, very cool! Quote
RobD7 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Love it! I'd never buy anything in white though. Always looks filthy by the time you get it to the end of the road! Its a myth I tell you, white is the easiest colour I've ever had to keep clean, especially compared to black!! Quote

Mark@Abbey m/s Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Colin, you brought it then from CD Nissan , my friend said they had sold a white 370Z, nice car. Mark Quote
joey350 Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 The 370 looks fantastic Colin, i'm a big fan of the white, would consider keeping the standard wheels on over the nismo's too i like the design, looks cool on the car. Joe. Quote
mattstoke Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 The best colour choice by far Colin...Enjoy! The white will be a bit of a mare to keep clean (mine goes to the local car wash 3 times a week!) but it is worth it cos it still makes me smile everytime I walk towards it! White gets a LOT of admiring looks too!!! Ps..The "self healing" paint does actually work. I had a wooden gate blow open onto my bumper, nothing too drastic in terms of damage, a little T cut did the trick, but there were still small surface scratches visible upon close inspection. After a few days they went...weird as I thought it would be a load of BS but far play it works for small scuffs etc! Quote

Looks like my car washing habit continues as before then Good news about the paint healing seemingly working Makes me wonder if that will mean less 'swirling' - we shall see And it healed the stonechips that would be even better Quote
Chris`I Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 And it healed the stonechips that would be even better Wish that was true too, unfortunately anything that breaks the clearcoat cant be healed Will be interesting to see how "glass like" the self healing clearcoat stays over time and how it reacts to polishing etc. Quote
jerry3167 Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Hi Colin, You are a real lucky guy, and im dead envious of you Enjoy it wisely m8, expecially in these arctic conditions! Quote

I'm quite keen on those guys in supermarket car parks with a trolley and a bucket of 50% water / 50% grit - not! Quote

The white will be a bit of a mare to keep clean (mine goes to the local car wash 3 times a week!) but it is worth it cos it still makes me smile everytime I walk towards it! Please NOOOOOOOOOO!! Never use a car wash Quote
Stew Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Whites a walk in the park to keep compare to black (Colins previous Zed was black) Quote
Chris`I Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Whites a walk in the park to keep compare to black (Colins previous Zed was black) Yup, at least with white and self healing paint, he wont have swirls to contend with Quote
rtbiscuit Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 whats this self healing paint, not come across that before? Quote
Chris`I Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 whats this self healing paint, not come across that before? The clear coat on the paint is somewhat plyable. If you put a slight scratch in just the clearcoat (like swirls), then it will smooth itself over time. I've heard it works much better in warmer climates, which is backed up by Infiniti telling me they use heat guns to help along the process on customer cars. The only downside I have heard is that it can look quite orange peely. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 i thought the 350's were like that. or ia that juat down to crap paint, as i've managed to remould the laquer before as its soft on the 350 Quote
mattstoke Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 I know what you are saying about car washed, but the guy I use I have known for years and is a bit of a detailing freak! I think he see's washing the 350 and now the 370 a biy of a special treat...and I aint gonna argue Quote
Chris`I Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 i thought the 350's were like that. or ia that juat down to crap paint, as i've managed to remould the laquer before as its soft on the 350 Nope, 350z paint definately doesnt do that, they are soft as shite and dont fix themelves! Quote
