and that new dark blue on the BAs. Looks so dull from a distance, you've gotta get up close to tell it's even metallic.

* Early 90's Camry beige
* Flat red on Aston Martins or Jaguars, it's just WRONG!
* Oxford Green on the AU, woeful
* Champagne and all it's variants, truly aweful on any shape or sized vehicle

I was never a fan of that colour either but its sort of grown on me now and doesnt look to bad on the xr's. I often have to ask myself why I got that colour instead of black or red etc :

But my worst colours are white, congo green, acid rush, envy plus many more but i dont know the names of them.

Not sure what it's called.....That absolutely horrid brown/bronze colour I have seen mainly on AUII Futuras. What on the face of this earth were they thinking???!!!
I saw one on the freeway the other day, I looked at the woman driving it and thought 'you must have been smoking some good crack to buy a car that colour'.
