No, I would not buy a NEW car in that color, but I would love to buy an
original Boss 302 Mustang in Grabber Green (lime color). Originally,
when I was young and foolish (as opposed to middle aged and foolish now),
I only wanted a red TR6. And that's what I bought. I have owned two red
TR6's (I still have one of them). And I still think red is a great color
on a TR, by the way! But almost every other TR6 I see is red (BRG is a
close second). But now I am finding that my color taste in TR6's is
getting somewhat perverse. I am finding myself looking for more unusual
colors. I once thought Java was the ugliest color ever devised by
Triumph, but now I would love to have a Java Green TR6. Its the unusual
and rare nature of the color that now appeals to me. Why, I have even
looked with interest at a Brown (gasp!) TR6. The same goes for unusual
factory interior colors. I think I'm getting eccentric as I age!
