Been through the entire Picture Thread and half of Cardomain and I've seen minimal amount of Hunter Green (Metallic Green.. whatever they call it) Maximas. None on the board and 2 on Cardomain. I take it this wasn't a popular color.

Reason I bring this up is because I just put a deposit on a Green 2K SE fully loaded. Was just looking around to get some inspiration and such. Well on the plus side, it's a rare color and I can have one hell of a unique car when I'm done with it. MY last Max was the VERYYYY Popular Sterlin Silver Mist. Love the color but it seems everyone, thier grandma, baby momma, babby daddy, jump-off and attorney has that color.

CLiffs:: Anyways, who else on the org has a Green MAX?

 

my friends mom has a dark green 2000se, its looks nice

 

i do right here. check out my cardomain.

 

Checked out your page. VERY nice work.

 

thank you, as far as i know i'm the only green max with a 2k2 front end.

 

My wife drives a 2000 Green GLE. Bone stock so probably not much inspiration here.

I do think it's one of the only colors that looks good with silver tint though.

 

you are absolutely correct.. the green color on cars peaked in the 90's.. by 2000, it was about dead.. not many people bought green colored cars, and currently most car models don't even offer any green colors.

 

Green and Black are almost no where to be found. Like you said, only the Mist is popular. I got lucky and landed on a Black lol.

 

I've seen a couple Black GXE : bleh, for sale I would have loved to have a fully loaded Black on Black SE/I30 but I think I'll be just as happy with Green. I like not being one of many.

And you are right about the Green in the 90's. Almost EVERY 4th Gen max I see around is dark green.

 

I was looking at a '00 SE in green with tan interior before I bought mine. I just couldn't get into the tan at all. And it was a 5 speed, I wanted the automatic.

 

SO now that I've got one of the very few Greens out there (until everyone and thier mom gets into it in 3 months.. watch, always happens. lol j/k) I'm deciding how to make it stand out .... in a good way, not a rice way. In anyones opinion, how would GOLD rims look on this color green?? More so these?? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-AD...spagenameZWDVW

 

i've never seen a green max, but i've seen tons of black and sterling mist

 

i likeyy

 

I like mine. I don't have any new pics but only visual mods are the tint (which is a weird two layer combo that came out looking pretty cool, not reflective but not black. Can't see inside though), 03 headlights, and the massive drop thanks to S-techs/Illuminas. Too bad it's been parked for 3 weeks and will continue to sit in the garage for the time being.

Oh yeah.. Of the few I see on this board and car domain, mine is one of the even more rare with a 5 speed AND fully loaded.

 

I see a lot of green GXEs in Hawaii... a lot of rental car companies picked them up. Mine (ex rental) is also green.

 

an older person down the block from me has a 2000 green max se w/ tan interior i believe..one of the only ones ive ever seen and i actually like it. One of my friends got an 02 black on black se w/ a few mods done to it.

 

Black 5th gens I see all the time. There is nothing uncommon about them. The two rarest colors though are Sherwood (5th gen) and Tungsten Blue (2002-03).

 

I Have a 2000 Green Max......not by choice but i have it, with tan leather interior, i love it, i gotta put my eyelids on and what not and paint my lights, but mine is GREEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the Tungsten BLue replaced the green in 02

 

Its Still a little stock but i got more work to do, I got a stillen filter, 5.5 gen rims, clear corner markers, eyelids, soon 4 12's, strut bar, I have springs to put in i jus need to order struts.

 

green color nice don't have to wash that often as my is offwhite

 

yeah you do, white hids everything compared to green, any dark colored car is going to show any dirt, ESPECIALLY BLACK. Swirl marks are hard to find on an off white car to, people with white cars and silver cars have it easy.

 

Silver IMO is the easiest color to keep clean. White highlights all the mud and dark dirt (if that makes sence) and Black, like you said highlights all the swirlies, pollen, crap, etc. etc.

Back to the second question at hand. How would Gold rims look on green, and would I need something else to be gold to accent it? (Succer for color matching and such.) Any ideas welcome. Photochop even better.

 

Green with SE tails looks really nice. I looked on tire rack with the green and gold rims, i think that bronze rims would look really good imo.

 

glad you like it. my car is also a fully loaded 5 speed. the only thing i'm missing is the navigation, but i don't believe that was available in 2000. i love the color, to me personally it's the best looking color on a 5th gen

 

theyre all in cape cod! i was there for the 4th of july weekend.. saw one at least once a day.. have never seen one anywhere else

 

the color you're talking about is called Sherwood Green. They are only found on the 2000-2001 but the 5.5 gen was deleted that color. I love it, it's shiny and still lustrious, it's a pain to keep up the color cuz I live in the SW where there's a lot of dust and rain, not a good combo to dirty up my car

 

hey XLCREW, what's wrong with your hood, seem like it's not shut close.

 

it wasn't closed. i was going to open it and then i got distracted by a buddy at maxus when the pic was taken. it closes just fine, check out my cardomain page

 

Honestly IMO i think gold rims would look absol. hidious on a green maxima. there were some greens with maxima and se markings were gold then aight, but gold is ewwwwwwwwww.......and 2001-2000 were the only years with this color, then they changed it to the ugly tungsten blue EWWWWW.....

That car is nice but you need eyelids or something it looks a lil naked

 

Yeah, Nissan did away with the green colors on the Max's. Must not have been a popular color of choice among consumers. But, I had a '95 Black Emerald which was a great color. The only way you could tell it was green if the sun was directly hitting it on a very bright day. Most people thought it was black. I think Nissan should bring this color back, and offer better color choices like the Infiniti's!!
