The Corolla is so boring, but...

...I like that you can get it in green. Most cars in its class are available in silver, white, black, red, and maybe blue. Green is kind of a rarity these days. I parked next to one yesterday and really liked the color.

The name of the color, though: "4evergreen." Who did they pay to come up with that?

A 50-something ad/marketing/campaign agency person who thinks he is in touch with the latest culture, but is really not.

Must be the same guy who's writing commercials for Fiat right now.

The same kind of people who named Pontiac colors "envious", "mysterious", and "brazen".

Toyota offers green on a few cars. I love the dark green that they have on a few of the trucks and suvs. It's really dark with a hint of grey metallic in it.

Edit: Spruce Green Mica is the color

Kinja'd!!!

Its the same guy who figured changing Cadillac model names from real names to letters would somehow magically make them competitive with BMWs.

I've seen two of them in green. It doesn't look good IMO

Might not be a bad color to pilfer for a custom, tbh. Similar to an old Mercury color, but dressier.

Looks good in green. I'd take one with the other wheels all day. Preferably manual of course :]

Those were actually improved models from the Catera, etc I was thinking of the Deville and DHS.

No, they paid a bullshit campaign agency who knows exactly how much of a waste that money is. That agency paid the 50-something agency person in wages to come up with that shitty idea.

Well yeah, that's what I meant, just in a more round about kind of way.

I actually said this to someone the other day...almost the same exact thing.

Next to one at a stoplight I looked and said, "I hate the Corolla but God damn I like that green. I wish more cars had green as an option...especially a Wrangler."

You know, the Corolla really gets an undue bad rap. My wife has a 2010, and it really isn't a bad car. I know why they sell a ton of them, because they just work. It's dead reliable. Even with the slushbox, it is fairly peppy (typical for the class) and rides okay. The only bad thing I can say about the Corolla is that it doesn't seem to be designed for anyone over 5'8 or so

I've seen a lot of them out and about in that color too, it seems to be fairly popular. Or maybe I just notice it more because it really is beautiful. I don't know why more manufacturers can't offer something like that.
