It's Java Green, and it's hideous! A couple of yank members on here have it on their M4's!

If only it had Coral Red interior. Less "Superman", more "Kermit in a liquidiser"

Java Green was best suited to the MK2 RS2000

Surely you need to paint the wheels gold and have a large spoiler on the back for that colour.... taste is very subjective but I wouldn't step inside that car and drive it away if you paid me.

+1. Looks good on M4, not bad on coupe, but not on 4 door - IMHO of course.

Think I'll stick this on an AUC watch list and see how quick the price comes down.

Sort of looks ok in an odd kind of way, but I wouldn't order mine in that colour.

Yes. Also Le Mans green on the MK1s.

Strangely, you can see that most of the younger drivers react very strongly against these colours.

Yet, those who have seen colour fashions come and go (in cycles) have experienced a larger "cool" palette and may look more open-minded on these colours (i.e as previously mentioned, colours on older desirable cars : the RS2000, VW Corrado, BMW Ms etc.). Cars some may never have seen on the road at the time, and are completely unaware of.

Still, vive la difference
