Nice! Way to make our colors rare

Maybe repainting the car to a custom color isn't necessary anymore haha

AG is gorgeous, IMO. My dad has it and I love that the hue of the color is different as the light changes.

I also loved Athens blue. It was very sporty on the car. It would have been my second choice under white.

How'd I end up with black?

Yea eliminate AB and AG I don't even know why they offered AG when you have PG! That blue i's ok though if modded proper , that's my opinion. I like the new Color options.

Not a fan of either color so no big deal to me. I think GS is better than either of the previous graphite colors....

They do list lapis blue as a new color, I am assuming it will be a very dark blue, should look good. I will miss AB though. Personally I wish they would offer black cherry or whatever it is called that the 370's got. Looks great in person.

I have an AB and I think it looks stunning. The color is so awesome the way it reflects sunlight and the sparkle it has. I've gotten tons of compliments on it and I've only had the car a little over a year. Just as long as you keep the car clean and shiny, like I do, then the paint is gorgeous.

now that I see the Athens Blue is being used as the press photos for the 2011 G Vert, maybe they are bringing it back...and also I was told by a dealer today that they spoke with the factory rep from infiniti today and they said that the lapis blue isnt going to happen and they're scrapping it.....is there anyone out there to believe anymore?
