Sure would stand out on a winter day.
Heck, it would stand out in a dark room!
Not my choice for a great color scheme!

Maybe it was made as a prop - that color looks like a greenscreen.

In any event, it could use some video editing to reduce the eyeball bleeding effect.

And yet the highest price ever paid for a "Stock" AMX was at Barrett Jackson a couple of years ago, and it was that color.

I'm almost positive that the car was painted as a promotional car for that soda in that pic. Notice the green script is the same.

Re: I saw this "thing" on MBforums...

It's not my choice of color.... but I like it as a "show car". A real attention getter. I think this may attract the "younger generation". Nicely done.

I agree, perhaps some more black, like the grill and door handles . . . more like the Lambo. Although I do think it's to shocking for this car . . . some how it looks right on a Lambo or GT2

I think it looked pretty cool when it was white with the red wheels and the white lip.

The green is interesting...definitely 'different', lol.

Re: I saw this "thing" on MBforums...

You guys are being too hard on it! That **** is HOT! Did you see the "before?" It was white, wheels were painted red with a white lip. It's def "loud" and not for everyone, but I'm all about it!

I can't stand that tunerz/hip hop talk crap! "SICKEST CROSSFIRE EVER!!" I'd say

. ""WIT da fat lip..." Dude, say with, it's ok to use correct grammar and spelling!

On another note, anyone know what kind of wheels those are?

White looks much better. Minus the red wheels, I like it. Green not so much.

If you unknowingly have bad taste it may look in good taste to you.

Remember, people with bad taste make the rest of us feel superior, even if we unknowingly have poor taste.

Good taste is a transitory thing, I know, I have pictures of myself in 1970's clothes. Jeez!!! I'll never live them down.
