Would color be so bad?

I am getting ready to buy a new Maxima or Altima, and although i've decided on aftermarket leather, various mods, and all that stuff, what I cant decide is what color. Why cant nissan be a little bold once in a while. Their sedan colors are so bland. How about a bright red, a lighter, more metalic blue, or even a yellow or something. I'm tired of the same superblack, sterling mist, and grey luster Maxs all around. Does anyone else think something bold might be nice for a change?

You mean bold like a "niceorange"????

I kinda like the new altima superblack. No, I really like the new Altima, period.

I planned on buying a new Altima, that is, until I sat in one. The interior reminded me of a early 70's porno set .

I bought a Sterling Mist Maxima SE instead, and am happy for it. The color may seem bland compared to other makes like Pontiac, but it's classier and timeless IMO. Plus, if your not satisfied with the color you can always mod the exterior to fit your tastes, or just get the car repainted if you got the cash.

I drove a Purple Metallic Grand Am GT for four years, and trust me, it gets old. Impossible to keep clean, and a magnet for 5-O.

I love my sterling mist.It looks nasty with a good coat of wax and pollish and really nasty with tinted windows.But I do agree with alot of the Nissan colors being drab and boring.

they should bring back the bright red to the max (i wonder how thatd look on a 2002) i mean they had it on 3rd gen SEs and 4th gen SE-L's. Or maybe some type of deep sport red but that blue looks nice on the 2002 SEs

I say they put an Emola Red on the max, if I get mine painted a different color, that's what it will be, the color of the M5,

I think a perfect example of a hot color is the stillen altima. Im sure you'd be sick of it in a while, but damn, that car is beautiful! I like the majestic blue max alot, but if I'm gonna get a dark car that i have to clean all the time, it's gonna be black. I love both the max and altima in black, but im afraid in years to come it will be dull and swirly. I also wish the max came in the same silver as the altima. That color is sweet too.
