Onyx on burnt orange = poetry in motion

 

That is a kick a$$ combo! I only saw it once on an FX45 and loved it. Do u have any interior pics?

 

Just some color info for you guys....wonder why we do not have so many votes?



I still have no pics of Coral Sand 6th gens....

 

I have the Champagne Myst color Max......I like it.....the color definietly hides scratches.....I thought about black...but to me it shows too scratches and chipping.....my mother has a black car and can see every nick and scratch.....I also like silver cars as well....they hide scratches pretty well too.....

 

I would get a picture of mine posted, but it is filthy with all the snow that we've had that it's gonna be a while before I can get a clean picture.

 

Do you mean to say, "...wonder why we do not have all color options on which to vote?" If so, as I recall, the maximum number of poll response options is ten. As I understand it, the total of color options for both 05 and 04 is greater than ten.

 

Merlot...that's maroon to us guys

 

Call me on drunk but I count a total of 10 and no more:

1. Liquid Silver
2. Winter Frost
3. Onyx Black
4. Radiant Ember
5. Spirited Bronze
6. Red Opulence
7. Majestic Blue
8. Coral Sand
9. Champagne Mist
10. Smoke

Where is the missing color?

Ohhhh....I see, in the poll we are missing Champagne Mist...but still no more than 10 colors that I know of....well, besides custom colors like:



Maxima617 is a different breed though. Actually, curious to what the color was before the change.I think it was Majestic Blue with an overspray. Help us out Maxima617.....what did you do?

 

I had my sights on a liquid silver exterior and a light gray interior, but the dealer only had coral sand with the equipment that I wanted. Coral sand would not have been my first choice or even my second choice (I also like the spirited bronze), but it is OK. I view coral sand as somewhat "understated", and that is fine with me. It's subtle and doesn't draw attention to itself.

I entertained the idea of black exterior and black interior, I think it would look great, but I also think it would take more attention than I want to give to keep looking clean and it would be very hot in the summer (not fun with a long sleeved shirt and tie).

In addition to your question regarding how one ended up with the color one did, I speculate that the data from the color poll reflect a certain age and computer use demographic too.

The data make me curious as to why there are so few Coral Sand poll respondees.

 

Actually, this is a Ember with ghost flames that is different. Not sure I feel the flames on a Maxima....but different. Just had to post it.





Love the Niche 20" rims alot.

 

radiant ember

 

Majestic Blue. My 98 Max was black and my 69 SS Camaro is black so I needed a change.

 

Wow, MAJESTIC BLUE has the most votes for color??

I live in Houston, and I dont think ive even seen one yet. Mostly see silver (which is another reason I went Winter Frost) Love the silver though...

 

It is not really common here probably because of the salted streets and highways. My Choice though

 

radiant ember baby

 

Winter frost.

 

[/IMG] i want that caliper paint now...

 

Love my smoke and I've seen a couple of these in South Florida. The other color I often see is black and majestic blue. Haven't seen any other colors...

 

TJ MAXX...Heh Heh...

Tasteful flames, great rims.

 

I have been waiting to see some SMOKE cars with MODS

 

I folded my mirrors the other day, does that count?

Sorry, kind of an inside joke.

 

Max 617's car was majestic blue before he did the chameleon thing and let his GF F it up playing with the airbag suspention.

 

+1 on that. Ive seen a 2004 recently in my area with tint, it looked soooooo nice

 

i got majestic blue and ive been sticking with the navy colors for my past 2 cars but i think im done with the dark colors..... im definitely going a little lighter next time

 

I just had the tint done on my 04 spirited Bronze, It looks awsome, I will post picks later. I do wish I had gone with the smoke color, darker is better when it comes to paint.

 

I thought about a blue or black car. Black is gorgeous WHEN IT IS ALL CLEANED UP. Given my driving routes and lack of free time to clean my car, even though sometimes I think about getting a black or dark car, a lighter, more neutral color is more practical for me. I'm one of the five that got Coral Sand, which is OK, but in retrospect, I wish I had gotten the spirited bronze. White is beautiful when it's cleaned up, but to my thinking, suffers from the same need to be pristine to look good. Coral Sand or the spirited bronze still look pretty good with some significant road dust.

 

i had white car since my first car till now..i like it cuz the girls like it..^^

 

I have Majestic Blue w/ black interior. It looks quite nice when it's clean. Onyx also looks good when it's washed and waxed.

 

I went with Red Opulence, only one other in my town so makes me feel "special" But I gotta say when I see a black one drive down the road, it makes my heart skip a beat!!

 

Looks we are in the minority. I can't believe there are more "burnt oranges" than coral sand.

 

..I think black is gorgeous clean or dirty...I eman after hearing how terrible it is keeping the black car clean, was pretty happy with how it looked after getting rained on and drying.

 

I hear you. Though Coral Sand may be understated, Burnt Orange is, to be polite and in my opinion, "fringe esoterica".

 

I am looking a getting a 05 max but am having trouble picking a color? Are there two different colors of silver or what? I saw a darker silver at the dealership but no color name on the window sticker.I was at the dealership at closing time.Could someone post the pics of the different silver

Suggest going here - good luck!

http://www.nissanusa.com and then to "Build your own" - that way you can see both interior and exterior options on both the SL and SE...

 

The colors as represented on the NissanUSA website might not be true due to technology limitations. I suggest you go to a dealer and look at various vehicles and color swatches to get a better idea of the interior and exterior colors and the various (and limited) combinations.

 

Black....but %#$@ its hard to keep clean

 

Pathfinder has Black with the camel leather interior, looks sweeeeeet. Its the only black Pathfinder I've seen with that setup and the DVD. My Max is black with the silver/grey leather and it looks rich. With these 2 rides in my garage I look like a friggin ganster house.

PS. The SL's faux wood doesn't bother me, if I ever decide that I hate it I can change it out to the SE kit.

 

Okay guys, I can't create a new thread so I will ask this question here. I just bought two 2005 SE's, one Coral Sand and one Liquid Silver. As part of a freebie package from the dealer, I can have a handpainted pinstripe on each car, and it's a two tone split stripe where you get to pick the colors. I'm not sure I want the pinstripe. I have reservations as to whether or not it ruins the clean lines of the car or not. Have seen a couple of "tape stripes" on the car, but I'm still not sure about pinstripes. Do you guys have any thoughts on this? I would appreciate some help so I don't get "pinstrippers remorse".

 

I just bought an '05 SL in Spritied Bronze with Cafe Latte (leather) interior. Love the uniqueness of the bronze (pewter-type) color. Different from almost anything else on the road -- except an Altima. And always wanted a camel-like color leather interior. The contrast between the two is just perfect for me.

 

Red Opulence here also, I have had two black cars and it was almost criminal the things you had too do to keep it clean. Not to mention during the summer at the beach or just hang'n out, leaning up against my ride and getting my A$$ burned. I like Black, but I like Red better... Respecting, PEACE All...

PS, secondary choices I think are hot are Burnt Orange and Spirited Bronze.
