Ugliest color ever must be "Urban Green" on a BMW Z4.

I hate when people order such beautiful cars and screw them up with the ugliest colors imaginable. Did someone honestly think that would look good on a 997?

Who would order a CGT in that color, and then turn around and sell it with 55 miles on it? Unless the person ordered it, then passed away? The color really looks much worse on the CGT. Too bad, such a beautiful automobile. That color might look good on an older car built in the 60's - 70's but not with either of these two? Then again who are we to say how another person should order their car. If they have the $$$ , power to them.

Drop it, put some black Techarts on it, and tint the windows...

Something is jacked up with that car or with that picture. I can't put my finger on it but it ain't right...

I think its photoshopped because the color just doesn't look right and the lighting on the wheels seem much brighter than it should be.

The 997 Turbo color there is beautiful in comparison to Urban Green.
