Hi Willa, The color is called LeMans Sunset and it was the color used on the Show car that Nissan moved around the country awhile back to guage responses for/to a new Z car. Yes, it is now their "signature" color signifying the first year return of the Z and it is a limited run for the color and only this year. Regards, Jim N'AZ

Both are gorgeous! That copper one is a limited edition color, no?

It's been there for a while. Pretty, though I'd probably go for black myself.

Is it just me or do some of them not have the rear wiper? I can't see myself ever buying a slantback/hatchback without one because of how dirty the rear window gets. Especially in the rain.

They are very pretty cars and are actually close relatives of the VW Beetle -- both were designed by Ferdinand Porsche and were originally both air-cooled rear-engine cars. The Beetle was reborn as a front-engine watercooler but the 911 remained an air-cooled engine rear-engine car until the mid to late 90s. (It's now watercooled as well.) At least the engine is still in the "right" end of the car!

I agree that it’s Pretty and as well as expensive.:-) Like all people we really indulge in our hobbies, its computer and photography for me.

It’s a play car with a very limited playing field in my country. The only place that the owner can safely satisfy his need for speed is short 5 Km. well maintain expressway. His main car is a BMW X5 which make navigating potholes much much easier. LOL
