Vanquish S, DB9 Pics - Aston Martin Racing Green???

The proper name is British racing green, i will see what i have.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think there are both. British Racing is exactly that-- British Racing Green. But I recollect a color called Aston Martin Racing green that was more of a Sea Foam (but greener).

EDIT: I think the second color I desribed is chiltern.

Can anybody chime in?

 

Chime! I think you are right. I believe they are two different colors

 

i got these DBR9 in BRG i think.....

You could be right mate, but there was an Aston green for the DB7 called BRG.

such a sleek and perfect color on a car like that....

 

Close mate but too light.

 

it seems to be a rare color no?? i really havent seen any AMs in that color other then the one you posted

 

Thanks everyone.

 

There is no official British Racing Green. Many companies have called their green British Racing, but there is no standard by which to judge. If you look up the history of the color, it comes in many shades from dark to light. The Jaguar version of BRG won't match the AM version of BRG.

As such, auto makers have "created" their own version of the green and named it appropriately. For example, Aston Racing Green or Lotus Racing Green. They may still offer a version of BRG, but their RG tends to favor what looks good on TV (motorsports).

 

thanks for the info...

 

That's the color I was trying to describe for ARG

 

Damn, even the Aston Martin racing cars look sexy.

 

you bet...id deff get one in that color........totally Aston....

 

bah. THIS is British Racing Green: http://tinyurl.com/bgafn

 

To the T

 

Here's a good example. THIS is BRG. Note that its not really metallic. Aston have done a good job ruining british racing green. Now everyone thinks that dark metallic green has to be BRG. Not the case...
