    It's definitely NOT Aztec Red if it is Metallic.

    that's a respray, not a factory colour.

    if you need touch up paint, take it to any automotive paint place and they can colour match it for you.

    Thanks Mike , I was hoping they used a factory colour . I may go back to bare metal and make it silver again .

    Is there anywhere I can see factory colour swatch on the internet ? How many silvers did nissan have for these ?

    thats my professional opinion.

    :rofl:

    Yeah , I was hoping it was a nissan colour . The back of my mind I thought ... I have seen this colour on a Z before . But hey who knows what goes on inside there ;)

    I was gonna go for an easy option and respray the same colour , but If I have to match then I may as well do a full colour change . Lucky its only 2 door and pretty much no roof :D

    Im actually surprised I havent got more "Its Red" jokes lols .

    My car is Aztec red (I bought Aztec red AG2 touch up paint and it matched exactly) and your car is definitely a different red to mine. Mine is more red I think. Yours looks more cherry red to me.
