No. Green cars are hideous in my opinion. But all that matters is if you like green yourself.

I say gold..
When I find myself in a position like this, I ask myself what would General Motors do? And then I do the opposite!

Please don't ruin the car by painting it green! you're not five years old anymore, you can't get away with that sort of stuff!
if you really want to do it green, then go for a flip paint, with green and blue mixed, so it changes color as you walk around the car

Anyone ever tried the spray-on latex paint that lasts for upto a couple of months & then you just peel it off. I'd like to give it a try, drive a different colored car every couple of months.

Now-a-days... Yellow is the new Red. Peeps used to just associate yellow cars with taxi-cabs, but they've really started to become the hot color in cars.
Who knows... the lime green may become the new yellow which was the new red!
As long as it gets attention & doesnt look too tacky, works for me!

No, try emrald green, or that one green color people use when putting on a bright purple or violet. Those are the only greens I think look good on cars.

If you color match the lambo paint...GO FOR IT! Those two kawasaki green or w/e celi's are ugly...but if you get a color the same shade as the lambo (metallic probably) Then I think it will look good. Just straight up gloss green would look bad IMO. I def. wouldn't recommend a crazy paint color unless you will have a REALLY nice celi though. And if you're worried about the color...whoever suggested the top secret gold w/ black top has great taste...and that would be a really classy look! P.S. PLEASE tell me that's your pic in your avatar

I'm not sure, seen it on TV. I'd love to switch up the color every summer & it would be okay to do something risky cause you only have to live with it for a couple of months.

Last week I was in the shop, and I mixed Green Trans. with Metallic, came out pretty damn nice. Mostly metallic though. It wasnt lime green, but it was better, it was a darker green, but still had its nice shine.

Get whatever you want, color doesn't matter. Custom is custom. It makes you stand out from the rest.

Its not justa a no, its a HELL NO! keep it clean. Do a gold, jdm rx7 blue, burnt orange. You need to have custom to stand out. (aka sparkles in the paint)
