Anyone seen a mineral green metallic GMC in person?

First, I'm not a big fan of green. But I must say the color in the sunlight looks pretty awesome. It reminds me of that old dark green barely-metallic called something like Jade Green back in the late 60s.

From what I can gather, the "Mineral Green Metallic Edition" is $495. It's a special color, and not on the normal paint choices. Not sure what it entails unless it's just the upcharge for the paint.

No freaking way to get how much the green pops in the sunlight from a picture. This color needs to be seen in person, much like the ABM. No way a picture can capture that. Reminds me of a green version of the black granite only it seems like it has more metallic in it. It's pretty frosty looking and dances on the body panels in direct sunlight. But also looks darn near black in the shadows. Neat color! Go see one in person if you get a chance. In the sunlight. Amazing color.




The Heritage Blue doesn't look horrible, but not all that and a bag of chips.



Sonoma Red Metallic doesn't do anything for me. Although it looks ok.

Heritage blue looks nice. If I wanted a gmc truck, it would be that color

I see it every day. Dark green in the shade and metalflake green (like a bass boat) in the bright sunlight. It's so brite I gotta wear shades.





I guess it's my substitute Camaro or SS. Oh, well.

That looks like fairway metallic that was available on 2013 avalanches.

If not the same, then very similar.
