Yes, the greens are very interesting. I would like my 240 to perhaps be either an army green or an olive green. I saw one that was sort of Army and it looked classy.
I am actually glad mine happens to be the dark dark blue. Also classy. These 123s have an entirely different look in the beiges etc. Wife thinks the dark blue is too pimpy. I don't agree. Maybe if it had dark tinted windows. What is up with that factory color that is essentially terra-cotta? Brian 83 240D On 5/4/06, Alex Chamberlain <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Much more interesting than the common beiges and pale blues. I saw a kelly-green 300SD at my indy's the other day that I was really taken with. Never saw one like that before. (The paint looked original.) I asked him to tell me if the owner ever started talking about selling it.
