    Green is a no-go color on any car, regardless of the brand, unless of course you are a Brit and into Brit cars, but then you would not be on these pages, would you?

    I guess I'm one of the exceptions to that rule. :)
    I love my tdf blue 550 but also really miss owning my dark green Jaguar E-type (car was stolen a couple of years ago while it was at a repair shop).

    Some good pics of my former Jag here:

    A dark green 550 could be a real looker when it is recently waxed and posing in the bright sunlight.

    There is a local green Euro 550 here that looks quite nice. The color may look out of place perhaps on a 360 or 430, but looks good on a GT like the 550.

    I actually like the exterior. I am not a fan of green but it is a rich looking color and is unique enough on this car that I like it. The interior, though, isn't something I could live with.

    i think at 69 mil, it's a tad high...see if they'll drop a few mill for you on account of the color... :D :)

    very nice green, though!

    Hmmmm....exterior isn't too bad, but I think the shape suits brighter color better. The interior is out of this world...by that I mean, it's for aliens....!!!!

    I love the color, but everything in the interior that is brown or tan needs to be black. Too many shades in there, but that's a pretty common problem on 'tan' Ferrari interiors.

    I'm thinking back in the day there was an order for an interior like this one when Ferrari made his now famous quote.....
