are you kidding me? For starters black & chrome are like PB&J, secondly it only takes about 20 seconds per wheel to wipe brake dust off chrome wheels, thirdly if your going to own a black Z, wiping down brake dust is the least of your problems. One nice gadget to own is a california duster, it knocks off all dust & minor road debri without washing.

I've had the Black, Silver, and now the JSB... The black looks nastiest when just cleaned. But the Jet Stream Blue takes the cake in any lighting condition. I love the way it changes depending on the angle.

Ditto. Today a 30ish guy with his woman driving literally crawled over her to stick his head out the window and gawk. Pick a color, you can't go wrong.

Only buy 2LZ or better. And I lightly cly bar every other month followed by a wax every three weeks or so. Everybody buys black. And when people see the sliver they just say that one elegant racecar. I swear that's what they say.

I must say that being an owner of a black Z is awesome however black is all over the place. I'm sorry that i didn't see the daytona orange before ordering my black z since I was one of the first cars delivered I didn't research it too much. Don't get me wrong i love my black z however whenever I see my buddies daytona orange it is extremely hot!

I thought red was the primer for Orange & Black ( I could be wrong I guess)
