I'd like to hear some other people's opinion's of what their LEAST favorite colors are on their Musclecars? I mean what color would be the deal-breaker for you even if it was your favorite Make/Model?! It's a tough decision these days because with modern paints and techniques, even colors that weren't very popular can look spectacular. I think Burnished Brown is a great example of this. Even when new in 1969 a Burnished Brown Camaro or Chevelle didn't cause a lot of excitement, but the last few Brown 1969 cars I seen at MCACN or the old Vettefest just looked absolutely beautiful. Anyway, the color that just makes me nauseous, almost no matter what's it's on, is that Chrysler Sublime Green. I've always just hated that color!

[/ QUOTE ]HMMMM, trick question. And I'm in agreement on the browns (same w/green). Hated em then, like em now. The 70 Chevelle had a really nice brown that seemed to have a touch of green(?) in it. Looked rich w/blk stripes. There's also a lot of colors I used to like, but by popularity have been over-used. Least favorite? The really light/pale golds probably. On the other side of that coin, I'm really digging Muscle Cars that are white, especially with the ones with lots of accents. Really looks elegant to me (and not over used)

I guess it all depends on how the car is trimmed, not to mention what the car is.

If my car had black stripes, I wouldn't like it as much. Plus, some whites are better than others.

I was unsure about burnished brown.
But once I saw it I was blown away, and its kind of unusual color.
My least favorite color is red--hate to say it.

A well done classic car in it's original color always works for me now that I am older. When I was younger I disliked green and painted a few green Camaros the brightest red I could find or black but now my favorite Camaro in my garage is a Fathom green 69 SS350 project car. Go figure.
