JetSet Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Has anyone had one of these from new? Just curious but how did you get hold of these, when I was looking about for a brand new Zed back in 2006 and again in 2007 there was no mention of Pearl White in the brochure, were these a special order and did they cost extra? Thanks, Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Pete Just looking at the HODS Nissan ordering system, and for example, the later 350Z GT Rays, Nav there where 4 colours all with Red interiors in: Ebisu Black, Universal Silver, Twilight Grey & Pearl White (QX1) Also the regular GT with more colour options, also had Pearl White as an option with two interior colour choices Hope this helps a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 A few around, as Lexx remembers all too well Includes BiG Phil's GTR - one of the first white (imports) to hit these shores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Love that pic Colin. That's Ho's 08 plate on the left too. UK car. Pearl White was only available as a UK option from 2008. The first were delivered to owners in late January 2008 (I was actually the first). The colour cost an extra £440 ish IIRC. They are rare as the Zed only continued to to be onsale for another year after they became an option. If you find one with Frost Leather to boot, then those are rare as hens teeth.

That's quite a good price really for a nice colour like that, as I seem to recall metallic paint was an extra £460 alone on top of the price of normal paint. Frost leather is mega rare. Most people seemed to opt for the Alezan orange like mine. Again, that was an extra few quid over the standard leather if I remember rightly.

Thanks for the info , I've seen a few on earlier plates so these must have been imports. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stroudy Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I love my Ebisu but man does white suite the Zed!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l-jack Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 the white 350's and 370's are amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I love my Ebisu but man does white suite the Zed!! And the white is a whole lot easier to keep looking clean than an ebisu, as I know all too well The bonus with the ebisu it does shine up a whole better - but that only lasts until the first rain arrives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
