Sell me on Amazon Green!

I'm planning on seeing a 92 Amazon Green C2. It has remarkably low miles-24k, and a tan interior. It's basically like new. I've never seen the color in person. Yeah-it's subjective and I'll either like it or not, but I would still like to see some cars and the opinions of the proud owners. TIA!

In my opinion that is a good color combination. When I was shopping for my C2 I looked at one and liked it but settled on white with black interior. The low miles is a plus no matter what color....

Green is one of those funny colors, either you love it or hate it. And the shade has a lot to do with it. I had a Brooklands Green NSX and I wasn't thrilled with the color and thought that I would grow to like it. I didn't, and sold it. Since I don't think anyone will disagree that Green has a limited following, ask for a paint discount, maybe he doesn't like the color either. Oh, but you asked to get sold on the color, well, it's better than purple IMHO

Bob,

I went to a local dealer today to look at a 94 in that color, looked good on the internet, but in person I had to pass, just to green for me.

It's really blue more than green - and as far as I am concerned one of the best c2 colors.

The only green I would consider is Viper Green on a long-hood.

You're right. It is more blue than green. Here's an Ebay car for example-not the coupe I'm considering.



It's about the same money.

Speaking of which-What is UP with convertibles?? It would be a snap to find one of those They're everywhere and for less money than coupes. I don't get it. Are they that bad?
