Unless I'm missing something, there is not a green being offered at the moment.

I've seen some articles refer to the Zeus Bronze referred to as either Green or Brown in some articles. Perhaps this is the color the OP ordered.

Welcome... FYI there is no green color for 2020 unless you're talking about Accelerate Yellow which looks high lighter "green" to some. But we haven't seen a real world car in that color yet.
