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.

DaSilverCivic 09-25-2006 07:02 AM

that color civic that you say the old people were driving i believe is the civic hybrid. i've seen a few of them that color here in jersey

Bad_Civc 09-25-2006 07:18 AM

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

IrockCivics 09-25-2006 07:24 AM

I dont know if this color is rare but I only seen one red 04/05 civic sedan. `It was driven by a old person, It was nice.

TransformedBG 09-25-2006 09:12 AM

exturbo6 09-25-2006 09:59 AM

CenZ 09-25-2006 10:04 AM

gizcivic 09-25-2006 10:55 AM

RHCP0801 09-25-2006 10:57 AM

dirtySAMURAI 09-25-2006 10:57 AM

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.

Ashhole 10-05-2006 03:24 PM

I dont see many green ones aroun dhere. But theres a few. around here tehres a good mix of all the colors except the beige

Ashhole 10-08-2006 03:36 PM

Jus ttghought id throw this one in. Saw a new color on a 7th gen today. Stock 04-05, with a mint green paint job.

CASPER087 10-08-2006 03:41 PM

i see green civic in md often. i see silver more then anything and it just has to be my color :/

gearbox 10-08-2006 04:03 PM

the green civic was only around in 01.

TRIZ 10-08-2006 04:11 PM

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.

TRIZ 10-08-2006 04:14 PM

Milano Red, http://www.rsx-s.com/pics/gallery/dc5red.jpg
pretty close, and pretty nice.

Ashhole 10-08-2006 04:41 PM

while wer are ontyhe subject for colors, does anyone knwo wha ti can get rallye red in a spray can?

ramcosca 10-08-2006 04:57 PM

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".

ricergribbs 10-08-2006 05:05 PM

screw green, the real question is why are there so few inca pearl yellow civics?!

IrockCivics 10-08-2006 05:09 PM

I love my green whip

Johnold 10-08-2006 05:10 PM

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.

CiViCPrAnInG2k1 10-09-2006 01:18 PM

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 shit 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.

thefever 10-09-2006 10:25 PM

I drive on 01 clover green. I love it. It's different.

Ashhole 10-09-2006 10:28 PM

which one of the greens is the darker of the 2?

thefever 10-09-2006 10:41 PM

Clover, I believe.

burke420 10-09-2006 10:45 PM

THE GOLD COLOR inca pearl i think it's called....pretty rare to me in ATL
