I like the idea of a green Vette...I always like the dark green, I think it was called Goodwood Green, Vettes I saw as a kid.
But this is hideous...Not for me...

I liked Polo Green. It probably wouldn't look right today.

My buddy at work just bought a Dodge Magnum Hemi in the first neon green color you have there.
You can see the thing 'glowing' from the other side of the parking lot.
