As a convertible owner I feel disgraced and sadened by the look off the interior and under the hood of that car. I mean come on have a litle taste, but I don't mind the wheels TOO much.

I agree the color is bloody awful....but I like it quite a bit, especially the US flags. That's a very nice touch.

I always enjoy unique custom jobs like this.

I actually kinda like it, it would be alot better if it were a diff shade of green tho. It looks kinda like it got attacked by a box of spearmint tic tacs.

Im gonna give credit where credit is due... that car is EXTREMELY clean, and looks like alot of time and hard work went into it. Now granted the colors picked might not be my favorite, but you have to admire a quality job,

whats the matter guys.. .getting "Green with Envy".. I agree it's a nice clean car.. the first pic looks good.. but to use the same green on the interior.. I don't know about that one.. Rims do look good though..
"grngryoutmyway" Thats a great way to put it..

looks like he went on a frenzy with the spray gun.... but if it makes the owner happy then i guess it is alright

just overdone with the green in my opinion

The color is overdone.......If the interior was black with some accents as the same color as the outside, it would look much better......

If the top is the same green color, that would be be comical.....

UGH!!!

As a Vert owner I was excited when I saw the first pic.

When I saw what they had done to the interior I had the urge to puke.

When I saw what they had done to the engine bay I uttered several bad words...

Whoever ruined a perfectly good ThirdGen Vert needs to be taken out back and flogged!


BAD WORDZ - BAD WORDZ - BAD WORDZ ! ! ! !

Geez!

Judging by the reflection of the body ... Whether you like the color or not ... I would say that is a very professional paint sprayed on there.

I dont think that there is any doubt that he has spend alot of time money and effort into it. I just dont really agree with all of his tastes. I personally have thought about putting a few items in the interior to match the exterior color (my car is green too!)..even seats..but that just looks cheezy...

If he hung a "tree" on the mirror, would it know what to do?

Hes got the green for the money...now he just needs some gold for the honeys...LOL.

The outside looks OK if it had some different wheels...The interior should be taken to a field...covered in gasoline and caught on fire. Then we should take the owner...well no comment there....

Often used in symbolism to show a country being torn apart by some sort of sepratist action... Racism, war, government, terrorist actions, etc...

I think the color is "Sea Foam mist" and that's sad to paint a house that color, but a sports car inside and out is blasphemy
