i really like the diamond green but it seems to vary on colour depending on what paint is used ect (as most colours would i assume)
alot of the cars in diamond green have more of a gold tint to them but the top car and the one i'm posting (i think are the same car) has a little more green to it and i am absaloutly love this colour.Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.

FYI.. Martin Senour AKA Sherwinn Williams couldn't mix Diamond Green for me. I ended up using PPG, which I like better anyways just cost a hellava bunch more.
