Paint colors
Can anyone explain why there are almost NO green cars available any more? I love a dark forest green or BRG, but green cars of almost any hue have all but disappeared from the landscape. I think Toyota's Evergreen Mica would be a fantastic color on the twins.

I've always heard they're the hardest to sell. Usually if you see green now, it's part of a custom color scheme for the whole car. DSPORT's green FR-S reminds me of silly putty, but I like it.

If they had a dark green for the FRS, similar to what Jag has for the Ftype, I would have been all over it!

Those certainly aren't the shades of green I'm referring to, but apparently someone likes 'em...

I'd be a fan of a hunter green or something similar that the new mustang comes in.

Most of the cars I have owned over the years were green of one shade or another.

Guard Green. If the FRS came in this color I may have gotten it.

The only thing that should be green, is money!
My first car was green. Never again! I always wanted it to be black when I had it. Later I owned a few black cars. Wow, hard to keep streak free! My car is silver, or errr Argento. LOL I like the custom neon Lime green though... It would never be a stock color... And if you asked me the "mint green" one is blue. |

Same here. In the right shade, green is a classy, understated color. |
