Why is green so rare?

I've owned my 7thgen for about a year now. And since then, like most others, that's when I started noticing other 7th gens. One thing I did notice is I rarely see those forest green civics. I've probably seen 2 in the entire year I've owned a 7th gen. Why aren't there any?

Edit - Oh ya, I remember one time I saw a 4 door sedan civic, this color



thing is...it was some ollld man and old woman in the car. With a cali plate. And apart from the color, the car was 100% stock...almost as if they bought it like that......??

i rarely see green civics.
Another color that i have only seen once is beige. Friday on my home from work i saw a 04/05 civic coupe in beige. I didnt know they came in that color.

i rarely ever see a green vic too.. i know a guy who has one but thats it..

that and i havent seen a black civic in a long time... i guess where im at in oklahoma doesnt believe in black civics all i see is red , blue and white...

i drive a black civic so im the odd ball in town i guess...

btw im in altus oklahom ( military relocation ) .. so i cant really cause to much trouble because im the only black civic with black headlights in town..( thats what the cops call me ... ) lol

Didn't want to bring this thread back from the dead but yesterday coming home from work I saw a red RSX. I know this was about civics but it shocked me bc honestly that is the first time I saw a red RSX. Not the burgundy colour a Rally Red RSX. Sorry just thought i'd share because that is rare to me.

I like the green one, I almost bought one buy couldnt find one that was in good condition... *sigh* But yeah, green with the champagne interior is pretty dope. There are a good amount around portland, probably because we're in the NW and all that.

But yeah... red rsx, I'll have to google that.

Milano Red, from what I've understood, is a tad darker than Rallye Red. It is Honda's "official" red hue, though.

[Edit] lol... I typo'd... but it was funny... I wrote "Reallye Red" instead of "Rallye Red".

i've seen about 2 of them here in town. i personally don't think that they look nice. civics don't look right in green. although, green IS my favorite color. i wouldn't want my civic to be that color. no offense to those who have green civics.

green is rare on the road, but there's 2 types of green on the 7th gen. 01-02 had the clover green pearl and 03 had galapagos green metallic. i have a neighbor who has a clover green pearl sedan so i see that **** all the time. the rare one to me is the galapagos green metallic, i liked that color so freakin much but i think it was only offered as an LX. i tried to find a picture on the members ride section but the search function is jacked up.
