Tahiti Green Pshop

Attachment 1479


I havent seen any photoshops of Tahiti Green on the site. I figured i would just do a quick rough photoshop of it. As its a brand new color i just used the color sample from the brochure and slightly darkened it as i expect it would look in real life on the car.

Probably will be a little lighter or darker than this in real life, but it gives a little idea of what it could be. Personally i think i like it, its different. Not sure if ill buy it as im really liking Alpine White and Monaco Blue.

Hmmm. Not as bad as I thought. From the brochure sample I was expecting it to be lighter and more "aqua" in nature. If it ends up being that dark and that much on the green side rather than the blue side, I might actually be interested.

Thanks for workin' that up.

That looks good... nice work with photoshop.

I think I'm the only one who's seriously considering this color. I want something unique. And, I think the green will especially stand out as a cabrio. Even here in south florida, you don't see too many green convertibles around.

Actually, I wish they were going to do the yellow (Dakar yellow?). I really liked the way it looked in the other color-change thread.

I would not go that far. My current 99 vert and prior 94 MR2 turbo where and are both dark green and they both look hot to me. Very understated and stealthy. :wink:

I agree 100%. A dark green color looks great and is stealthy.

Nice MR2--I love those cars. Toyota used to be a great company...

If it's closer to the old Montego Blue on the RX-7 then it might be worth serious consideration. That was one of the best car colors evar!

That was a gorgeous color on an incredible automobile.
My local dealer had one just like that...used at an attractive price. It drove absolutely raw- you felt everything- the road, the engine, the shifts.
God I wish I'd bought it.
