I went to NAIAS two days ago and saw the GHiG in person; OMG I love it ! Specialty cars like the B302 need to have a few choices of very vibrant, very vivid, improperly head-turning colors; whether it's a color that most people hate or love is not the issue. The competition orange belongs to this category and the grabber blue is another.

Below is a picture of GHiG B302 I took using my phone. I thought it captured the color (looked vividly acidic green on my phone) but as it turned out it's very hard to capture the essence. It's also a pearl paint with a flaky, golden sheen. It needs to be appreciated in person under the right lighting.

I went to the Detroit Show yesterday & I agree with the above, the color is not for me personally, but the color combo does look good in person. This is one of those colors that you have to see in person, because the pictures don't really show how it really looks. They also had the Black LS up on its side so you could view the underside and a SBY LS in a display. That SBY looked the best IMO.
 
Wow this photo looks way better than others I've seen. I think this is one of those colors that must be seen in person like Yellow Blaze.

Yellow Blaze was obvious............this is questionable. You either like it or you dont.

Yeah, not a fan of that color.

I bet you're such a lifer that you would buy it in haze gray if you could. ;) :p

Nah, I'd pass on that too. Now, if it were like the Blue Angels Mustang, I think I could live with Navy colors....
Navy colors - yes and with gold graphics....swwwweeeeet!
 
Gonna have to see it in person. It looks good in some pics, and bad in others. The blaze yellow I didn't like until I saw it in person, guy I kind of know at a dealership got on in stock and called me to see if I wanted it a while back. I said no, then recently saw one on the street and kicked myself for saying no until I found the white one.

I'm not a fan of white cars but the white Boss does look sharp.

I have found silver and grey to also be easy to keep clean
 
FWMPOIW (for what my personal opinion is worth), I was at the Detroit Auto show this week. They had the school bus yellow prominently dispalyed under a lot of lights and also had a green model (the car - not the other beauties) on display. I looked intently at each car color and made a comparison. The yellow was unquestionably more 'grabbing' than the green. It may just have been in the presentation. Sorry, no fotos.

I agree 100% on Silver. I had a silver and white F-250 and the silver was the best color for not showing dirt.
