I love greens. Really thinking about painting my 944 a very deep forest green.

Yes, me too!.. My 94 Civic started off as a teal very similar to that For Escort color pictured.

I eventually painted it Silverstone Metalic after the S2000. Much better.
Like this one, I half expected to see my old car when I googled this. Yuck

FYI, the color name for the Bullitt Mustang is "Dark Highland Green Metallic"...
The P-car purists would hate that...but hey, it's your car, right? ;)

(edit) Warning...dark greens show dirt as well as black. It is a work intensive color...

Shouldn't that be in green? :D
Speaking of which I'm still waiting for my Scarlet "P" shirt to come in.

Still my favorite among all the cars I've restored...

Fresh from the paint shop.

I was a victim of the teal/ fuscia craze with one of my Bugs.

VINMAN 04-25-2013 11:34 AM

This color was actually a ford truck color. think it was "forest blue" or something like that My fave color of all the vehicles I've owned.

Don't spoil it for me. :D

Sorry, Don. In real life, that is absolutely a hideous color. It's like a urine specimen from a really sick person...

I guess I was hoping that it was a good Yellow color. :)
After some time of looking, it does look questionable.

I've always been a huge fan of the "black cherry" 1990/1991 Eagle Talons. Basically metallic purple. Looks terrible on other Chrysler products, but just right on the Talon.

let's get right with one thing, here - a Porsh can look good in just about any color.
