However any sort of light reflection (from sunlight, or a street light, etc) brings out those flashes of gold that make the color instantly pop. That being said, i do find it to be a "sporty" color... if that makes any sense. So while I think it would work on an SUV, I do think it's still better suited for a smaller sedan/coupe.

Thanks, that makes sense. I have some time to ponder/persuade before I will be ordering. Maybe I will get to see one on person which would help.

Cool pictures and love the color, but think that the white balance may be throwing things off a bit. The neutrals (whites/greys) are showing a lot of red and as a result the greens are really popping/differentiated due to red/green contrast.
If you have photoshop/lightroom then click the WB dropper on the house, neutral concrete, white fence, etc. to see how dramatically it changes the color rendition of the pic. |

Those photos actually make it look like Manhattan Green, which, I assume, it does not.

Sorry for the delay... here is a corrected image. Still has some green but more a reflection from the trees and grass here. Also ran the conversion on your JPEG vs. an original RAW which results in less gamut to work with for the correction. As a result still not accurate but better than before. Environment plays a huge issue with respect to color perception vs. reality... what color is a white horse sitting under a tree in the shade on a clear sunny day? Your mind thinks it's white but the reality is blue.
