HHR - When do we get "Green" ....

I am from the old school and remember well the 1949 Suburbans. To the best of my recollection, most were painted a green color. I wonder why the new HHR is not yet available in green? Seems like it would be a nice touch.

God no! Please not green! I can deal with purple but not green. I can't think of one shade of green that would look good on the HHR. I like British racing green on some cars but even that wouldn't look good on the HHR.

Not even a very dark metallic green? The lighter green shown in one of the posts here is not what I was hoping for.

Well that might look good. I would have to see it first. I have never really been a fan of green cars. I like the British racing green that Jaguar uses. It looks really nice with silver.

The closest green that MIGHT look decent on an HHR, would be the dark emerald green. Any lighter than that would just be wrong.

I have a better idea........

What about a nice Emerald or very dark metallic green on a 2007 HHR with V-6 motor or if not a V-6, a turbo-charged version? Remember, this special version of the HHR for 2007 is ONLY going to be available in the one of the greens mentioned above. What is your choice then??

Maybe someone could photo-shop the HHR to give us a better view.
