Um...

Good luck with future resale value on that color... LOL

(No offense to those who like it - itā€™s just not a color on ANY Brand or vehicle that I would ever even remotely entertain for purchasing, much the same as a shit brown car..)

I wonder if the guy who came up with that color got a bonus?
When it comes to sports cars, the more obnoxious the color the better the resale. Particularly if it's not very common. Green is number three, after orange and yellow for best resale value.

I like that color, it's out of the ordinary but understated. If I were in the market for a new Stang I'd be tempted.

I saw this recent dodge teaser with proposed green colors such as Wicked Witch :p but this does not seem like a need for green to me. DHG and Guard still are the best.

When I buy a car my first thought is ā€œ what color will the next owner likeā€.

Where the hell are you getting those numbers from? Red is number 1, blue is 2, Black is 3. Excentric colors donā€™t sell as well because they have a more selective audience

Maybe you guys are mixing up resale numbers and resale price?

Like many current Mustang colours, it really does change hue depending on the light.....that last shot is very "Grabber Green" compared to the main shot in overcast conditions.

Either way, I'm a fan :)

That flat gray with the sign conveniently covering the rear badge...Guessing that's not a GT :(

I like that color.

Looks like a gt350R with that flat grey.


I really want to like the green, but in other shots ive seen, it looks like john deer green, and i dont want to have a car that looks like a tractor.

You are looking at numbers, not depreciation. From this article (and there are others). The take rate on green is very low, but the depreciation is better than average. Yea, not many people buy them, but those that want green are willing to pay green.

Green is the third-best color for depreciation after orange and yellow. It has about a 2 percent new-car selection rate and a depreciation rate of 24.5 percent for 2013 cars -- 5.3 percentage points better than the average car.
