well if yellow is a no, i think the next best choice would be mystic, du pont probably still has some, just make sure it’s the 96 mystic and not the 04 mystichrome.

The next timeI paint my car it will be along the lines of the urban green with a black top. I would recomend actually seeing the color in person if you haven’t already, IMO it’s alittle too gray/green. I’ve also been toying with the idea of a satin clear with the a gloss top.

I don’t think it will hurt resale, if you like it, you love it!

i dont doubt green will look good or interesting, but i still think you should paint it a more generic colour and have it done right.

if you paint it some custom colour it becomes the master trait of the car.

do you want to be the guy with the 'green bmw" or the guy with the “RB’d bmw”

i’d rather people refer to my car by what it does or what it’s got rather than what colour it is.

anyone cant stick a fancy colour on the car…NOT everyone can stick an RB into an E30

its COLOR you dumb Canadian, you’re on an American site fool. lol

i think the green and gold is too much like green and yellow, therefore a john deer symbol will need to be placed on the hood.
