i came to my attention on thursday night that the uncommom kermit green well is now longer uncommon. In fact i can name 4 cars painted from the same tin, but are there any others?

1. a VN
2. a VL
3. a VT Monaro
4. HQ Kingswood trayback ute.

Yeh bloody green cars. I'll pay sum1 to knock em all off, $50 a car anyone ? Just leave mine and Jess' VL on the road. Hahaha

Theres a falcon (ED or sumthin) painted green. And another VN apart from mine. Think theres a Gemini aswell. Bastards. Though alot the green cars ive seen have had a pretty dodgy job done. I might have to go pink or sumthin if they keep poppin up, but then id get bashed haha.

NVIOUS, EB with GT Bodykit kermit green?, that is my mates one, its just a stock rock 4L painted green with bucket seats.. he likes the colour, its a sorta dodgy paintjob but it looks ok, needs some rims though.. and a xr6t motor wouldnt go astray either..

There's the Kermit green SR20det rail car that accompanies the aforementioned Holden Rodeo aswell. That'd be the fastest kermit green car, i think its in the 9.20's?

Maybe they need to use their minds not Street Commodores Car of the Year Issue #79 pages 18 through to 25 for inspiration. :shake:

Jess am i turnin you on baby ? Hahaha

Yeh Rickmate it would of been a EB with GT kit (dont know my fords well) definately needs rims on it.

No matter how many there are, its still rarer than all the white cars out there ;P
You can do sumthing different but there's always sum1 out there thats already dun it or will jus copy you. Way of life.

I personally like the colour, though i will be painting my beast blueprint blue (the ford colour) or phantom purple (another ford colour) or also that limy green ba colour, not the matt colour, but the metallic colour... im interested to know the name, going to go find out now..

Rick

By the way, i love the way you have colour coded yourself NVIOUS, with the same colour shades as well.. and yeah my mates car in desperate need of rims, definetely the letdown..

what new colours are you talking about, nothing i have seen lately in new colours has really been kermit green. Only one ive seen that was proper kermit green was my cousins old 280zx and now NVIOUS's commo

Rickmate
16-08-2004, 01:09 PM
I will grab a phone pic of my mates car during the week.. definetely kermit green, exactly like NVIOUS'S commo..

By the way, i cant find that Ford BA Green colour, does anyone have a link or pictures of the colour scheme of the BA range, really would like to know what that green colour is called..

Too many, give me white any day of the week :D

Although there was one less nearly yesterday, when the clown in VYRGN nearly wiped himself out trying to show off.

That guy was a moron. 5 people in the car, boat spec suspension laying out some serious bodyroll and almost sliding into the traffic lights. Can't expect too much more from a P plater commodore driver. I'm sure Snowey (NVIOUS) wouldn't have minded either if he slid into a pole. :flipa:

Haha Trebek, you fruit..I'll have the rapists for 500. Celebrity Jeopardy, always puts a smile on my face, wish i could get more episodes, think i have them all..

And i thought Hothouse green was the Holden colour, hopefully Barbados Green is the cool new green on the BA's and Territory's (i think they are on them too, i love that ford green colour)...

Cheers

vu and vx's were not released in the green. The V2 Monaro's and VY's were the 1st models to recieve the Hot House Green metallic paint. Barbados Green is the old kermit green paint from the ol Torana's (XU-1's etc i think) and im not sure if it's metallic (i would presume not if its that old). And if people wanna get technical cars like [VIRGYN] (tho the car has now been sold and lost the plates) etc may be green but they arent really "kermit green", they are a much darker/metallic green. And the VR/VS wagon [THUMBS UP] is the Hot House green colour (or close enough i think) so there's thousands of those out there if you wanna start counting them as well, nice looking wagon by the way.

So nerrr to all the wanna-be kermit green cars out there. haha.
Go Team Green !
