sorry but those are not good examples to post- get the car out in the daylight- choose a nice location and post back.

I thought since the nordic green looks a lot different depending on the amount of sunlight and also since daylight NG's have been posted a dusk shot would be cool. I guess not.

I admit the parking deck isn't the most accepted location but I think it has a kind of concrete jungle/utilitarian look going for it.

The dusk shots look awesome. That car looks great in any lighting.

Ever thought about getting the reflection of a full moon off of it? I haven't seen a shot like that yet.

Razpewton:

GREAT idea. I will do that!

Thanks for the thumbs up on my less than normal shots. I should have known it would have come from you.

BTW the last picture was a nod to you if you couldn't tell. I applaud you for "having it done your way".

Love the green. Still haven't seen one in person.
But I was seriously considering getting one until I found out that they weren't bringing them to Canada!

Oh Man, when I saw this I burst out laughing. This dinosaur thing is really never going to end is it.

Very nicely done.

Hey Mr. T-REX-8 looks like you really started something.

By the way dinosaurs do exist they just dont come down from the mountains cause they dont have to. Okay cuz?

You really caught the essence of the green there in that there parking garage! Nice shots! I think we can all refer further inquiries about the green color to this thread.

The problem with the green is that unless it's in bright light it looks black. I've had to back out of a parking spot into the light to prove it's green.

Hey, Green looks good! havent seen one for real in Co, but it
reminds me of my old 97 Miata's, which was why i got that color.
It can look blue, black and green depending what light was
reflecting.. Dang, I forgot the name of the color! have to find my
old touch up paint, but if youve seen that color, you would know
what I mean.

I think I've taken three pictures that make my car look relatively green (out of a few hundred taken). Here's one of em.



I do love the color though. It changes so much in different lighting that I'm that much less likely to get tired of it after a few years. :D

Great pics. Under the fluorescent lights in office garage everyone asks if it's blue. In autumn it's -- autumn colored! We'll see about spring.

Montego Blue. I almost bought a 96 Montego Blue Miata. I love the color on the FD, it's just a shame that you couldn't get it with the black interior.
