felex6 Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Hi guys, Just wanted to say hi and thanks to those who helped me decide on buying the car I now OWN! (feels really nice to say that ) It’s a 07 Roadster in temper orange with only 5,500 miles on the clock! Compared to my Celica GT4 ST205, Z is sooo much nicer to drive!!! Really happy! Oh, have little roof opening problem (last stage of it going into a boot) but it seems it’s an effect of cold weather.. Quote
Beavis Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 to the forum. A rare colour/roadster combination Quote
martinmac Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Wow, never seen a roadster in that colour, good find bud. The roof issue is due to the weather bud, I have the same problem and its got new internals so just wait until it warms up a bit. Quote
Maccaman Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I wonder how unique your Zed is going to be on the roads. The Tempar is a rare colour anyway but as a roadster I would be surprised if there is more than a handful. Quote
felex6 Posted February 7, 2010 Author Posted February 7, 2010 I know, lucky find I suppose It was owned by a small Nissan dealership in Plymouth. They ordered it in that colour to attract customers, lol. At first I was worried that it's been trashed but the youngest guy working in that dealership is 51 years old Also wanted to ask if fitting Nismo or Borla exhaust would void the warranty? What about 19-20" alloys? Thanks Quote
narcotix Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 The zed looks great! Congratulations on your purchase! Quote
ATTAK Z Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 ............... At first I was worried that it's been trashed but the youngest guy working in that dealership is 51 years old We oldies are quite capable of trashing a car ................................... but we wouldn't do it to a Z Quote
captain Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 This colour looks with black wheels............ Quote
ATTAK Z Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I had a 504 in that colour once (company car) ..... I hated it ..............looks on a Z though Quote

Anubis Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Excellent choice sir! Amazing rare colour. Change the alloys to black / dark grey and you'll notice a big difference too (will also be easier to keep clean). Nismo exhaust shouldn't void warranty and neither should a different set of alloys (just make sure they fit properly). Ask your dealership what your warranty covers. Personally I wouldn't go bigger than 19", but that's just me. 19" fill the arches out more and can handle bumps well - I've never had any problems at all. Closest I can get: Not the same colour, but you get the idea (this is one of the best zeds I've seen): Quote
richt Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Never seen that colour on a roadster. Dark alloys would look great. Quote
HEADPHONES Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Congratulations. Post more pics in different light conditions please. Very rarely see this colour so would make for nice veiwing Quote
Bockaaarck Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Welcome felex6, that is a gorgeous looking roadster, very nice indeed Quote
bronzee Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Lovely Solar Orange as we call it in some countries. Certainly very rare. Enjoy. Oh, and if you nose over at my350z.com there's a "colours" thread devoted to Solar Orange. http://my350z.com/forum/350z-colors/245 ... range.html Quote
