GM doesn't need a color that won't promote sales. I would imagine that that color only appeals to a small group.

I'll jump in here on this one. I was one of the fortunate ones that remember the spring green Camaro that smace is talking about. She was a beautiful thing, and we spent many a day cruising around in it. The green was something you either loved or hated, and I think most people loved it. A few would ridicule, but I think they were just jealous.
