All I can tell you is when we were heavy in muscle cars, we kept a row of 12 to 16 LS6 Chevelles (our specialty). Out of all the colors, the Green Mist was sold around, could not give it away, along with the Autum Gold. We boought and sold 30+ of those things, before we finally raffled that car through the Chevelle club to off it.

It depends on the reason you are building this car. If you do not think you will be selling the car in the near future then the resale value is not that important so go with the green if thats what you like. If, on the other hand, resale value is important to you then you might think about picking a color that has a broader appeal to the people that might be looking to purchase.

Just my two cents.

To me, resale value, and overall crowd / fan desiability are one and the same. If you don't mind being the guy with the "nice car, to bad it's that color" Car, then go for it.

I plan to keep the car for a long time but agreee that resale value and the number of turned heads are similar.

well I am back to where I started..

what color would you paint it? with or without stripes? and what body mods would you do?
I had a dark green interior but i guess that can be changed.
I am just trying to stimulate some ideas
