Thread: Green for '74 Carrera?

    Green for '74 Carrera?

    What was the colour called for the '74 Carrera? I like the Mexican Blue and the green of that particular year, and hopefully I can find one. It appears to be rare colours, so I might be looking for quite a while. If I don't find anything in a couple of years my alternative is to buy a correct original car and have it repainted. That might affect resale, but I don't know by how much if any.
    Cheers

    For the standard colors, the green is called "Lime Green"

    Also, small correction for you- the blue is called "Mexico Blue"

    There were several special order greens available but the above may be the one you are referring to.
