    Nitro yellow green on the 1995 Neon's was a really cool colour at the time!

    Congrats on the NYT byline, Ray.

    The copy on the NYT site omitted the long O designation in Krom leading me to wonder whether Conan had started designing for Nissan. #raywert

    fiat came out with some rather ugly hues back in the malaise era, but this one is especially unendearing. #raywert

    @snapoversteer 'bout to get told: I think new and relative to the time it was probably nice, but when you've seen the color faded and out of malaise context... guesss its all in the eye of the beholder. #raywert

    Audi should jump on this porn name thing too. I'm pretty sure that Long Dong Silver would sell well in their core segments. #raywert

    I see some burnt oranges which are OEM here in Texas which make my eyes hurt.

    No pics, though.

    Ray, you are The Man for using a law case to easily slide that reference into a NYT article.

    Baby...oh baby...c'mon ovah heah...let me help you slide that right on in...

    Yeah, Ray, but you forgot to mention the wild MoPar paint cost about $15 extra as an option. People could understand extra for midnight blue with flecks or pearlized white but a lot of people at the time thought they were tractor or heavy equipment colors and therefore cheap! #raywert

    Classic colors? Panther Pink.

    Modern colors? Aside from TVR's winning chameleon colors, especially purple-green, I think the Elise yellow-green is particularly searing #raywert

    How about the 1969 and 1970 AMC's with the "Big Bad Mod" colors? They were: Big Bad Green, Big Bad Blue and Big Bad Orange. #raywert

    Plum Crazy is fine for Mopars but Statutory Grape on a windowless Econoline is more fitting. #raywert

    My parents had a neighbor with a '69 Roadrunner convertible. It was black on Sub Lime Green. What a fabulous car that was -- approximately the same size as an aircraft carrier, it was likely visible from space.

    ...and it had a 440 and a six pack. I helped time it! #raywert

    Great, but can you get GM to make the Camaro in Hugger Orange instead of that god awful terracotta they're using right now?

    You know... Hugger... #raywert

    For anybody who couldn't stand the reverse chronological order of the posts that rolled out with Jalopnik 2.0, now you can change it!

    If you go to your profile, there should be three links next to your name. Click on Settings and you can choose default viewing method (Featured only or all) and the display order. Hallelujah! #cotomersevis

    @Leeeeena the Jalopchick: Unfortunately, the system still seems to be buggy, and even though I have selected to view all comments starting with the oldest first, it's not happening. I'll just keep trying every day or so until it finally sticks, I guess. #cotomersevis

    If I only had the time, this LandofMinos alter-ego of mine would offend, terrify, enrage and disgust many a reader/commenters well as offer proper insightful editorial as I've tried to in the past.

    But lately work has made me scarce around these parts and I am from the land down under, where the beer does flow and the men chunder (vomit). Time difference is a bitch. #cotomersevis
