No green color?

Dang.

I just went up to Chevrolet dealership yesterday morning to pick up a Chevrolet Cobalt 2007 book that tell you trims, colors, wheels, etc etc and right after that, I was checking out the colors of the Cobalt and there is no green color (I was hoping they have dark green or emerald green).

Why no green!?!?! I LOVE GREEN!

I guess I probably go either Black nor Laser Blue nor Victory Red, but how good is Laser blue? I never see one in town nor anywhere (including dealership) and kind of interesting in laser blue. Got pics?

Thanks

You probably right, man, I have never see any green car before and I have a emerald green Silverado that I love the truck, but again you probably right that green cars looks bad.

What about arrival blue? How good is that color?

They should make a dark metallic green for the Cobalt... That would look sweet.

Dark Green Metallic is awesome green that I seen few colors on 03-06 Chevy Silverado, but I probably wouldn't like it on the Cobalt.

If you went to the dealers in '05 and looked through the oversized books that were usually on display in the showroom (not the take home brochure), they show 'jade green' as a color. It never made production.

yup. I have a green cavalier, not the teal, but the green. its nickname is "the turd."
even the newer green chevy had for the cavalier is cheap looling.
the only good green color i have seen on a car is my friend's 94 celica gt, its like a blue green.
The laser blue is a tricky color. It is blue sometimes and purple sometimes, not quite like an irridescent though. you can kinda see it in my sig. Its a very rich, deep color.

Ugh. Jade green? I see that color before and I really don't like light green.

I probably stick Laser blue (or arrvial blue...seem nice blue color), Victory Red, or black then.

I don't like Cavalier very much and I never see a green Cavalier before, but I see a lot of black and white Cavalier around here.

Nice sig, stlurbanpunk, the laser blue is nice color.

Are they even making Arrival Blue anymore? I thought 05 was the only year?

It's an amazing color. But it's out of production.

Sorry, triple post. Internet crapped out. As for it going bye-bye, Chevy is just cool like that, I suppose.

Your 'wishlist' says 05-07, so if you find a nice 05, you can find arrival blue, as well. I *think* some early production 06's have arrival blue, too.

i like the legend lime on the mustangs. id always rather have a color than something boring and lame like black or white or silver or tan/brown. something to brighten up the drive to work. but i had to take what was on the lot, better than walking.

Mine was built in 08/05, its a 2006 model and is Arrival Blue. Laser blue is sexy as well though. Good thing they didn't have both at the dealership or I would have never been able to choose.

the only good-looking green car I've ever seen is my dad's '94 Polo Green metallic vette. It's a shame they don't come in green anymore, but now that I think of it the C6 probably wouldn't look too good in green
