What color is Lime Rock Green?
Anyone know what shade of green this will be? I remember the Fairway green and there were not too many of this color made. It apparently was not a good seller

imho, a slightly WRONG shade of green. I'd love to see a Vette in "British Racing green" tintcoat. My late 1998 Maxima had that color and it was beautiful - got lots of compliments on the color. {Alas, my Maxima was totaled by a gal backing out of a drugstore parking lot while talking on her cellphone [she was phoning to say she was late].} But the untimely demise of my rust-free, problem-free Maxima w/ 1/4 million was my excuse to finally get a Vette, so...I settled for crystal red but would have bought the BRG color had it been available.

People still buy enough forest green cars to justify it? Really???
I'm sure the green/tan interior was a way to show off the vettes more mature, upscale side.
That being said, that's such a boring color. They should have went with an obnoxious lime green color. Would look great with black accents... as great as this car can look.

the new color does look more like the Fairway Green C5 than the Polo Green 2 C4. there weren't a lot of Fairway Greens made, that's for sure.

Reminds me more of the 1969 C-3 Green, just cannot remember that name. It is not blue enough to be the same as my C-3 Brandshatch Green, but looks darker to me. I know pixels can be deceiving, would love to get a sample of the color laid down as paint.
Tough to be patient.

I would consider buying a bright green C7 like the color below
