Cool color, but not on a 4 Door car. Maybe on the new Challenger.

I had a friend with a 70 Challenger Hemi painted that color. He called it 'monkey vomit green.'
Frank Barba built a '95 RT up for full track duty and painted it Sublime. It worked pretty well in that application.

Back in 1993 I saw a Gen I in Paris, France in that color. My first thought was, "What tha' F*** is a Gen I doing in Paris?" The car looked very cool tho'

They have 1 of those here at Northwest Dodge in Houston, It looks cool, but not my cup of tea.

Close. but it's got metallic in it. I'd like to clarify that the retro colors will look good on the retro Challenger, but to me, these colors just don't work on the rest of the fleet.

Close Dean. That was at the Midwest Viper Fest at Gateway in 1998.

I don't mind it actually, I wish it were just a hair darker though.

We had a customer buy a copper colored one here and he had us remove all of the black striping and badging. Came off easy as it is all decals but just killed the look of the car.
The bumble bees are about the best looking in my opinion, especially with the little superbee emblem on the drivers side.

Wow, I bet this would look fantastic on a '97 GTS. Now, where can I find one of those?
