Cars in colours you don't see often

Saw one coming the other way on the A1 at the weekend, though I think it may have been a modern Golf in harlequin colours, only saw it in the corner of my eye.
It's a Mk2 skinny bumper Golf with even skinnier steel wheels... sat behind it for a couple of miles whilst it hogged lane two, again on the A1. Seeker UK said:

There was a standard TT in orange in the showroom at Northampton Audi. I reckon it's the only one I'll ever see.Years ago my uncle had a Cassis Red Porsche 928 S4. As a kid I thought it was hilarious that he had a 'pink' Porsche, although looking at it now I actually think it looks rather cool...
His was literally exactly the same as this:
As for cars I've seen out and about in memorable colours, here are some off the top of my head! For some reason they're all yellow.
I can recall seeing a couple of W202 C-Classes in this odd light yellow colour. It's not massively dissimilar from the ivory colour used on German taxis, but it looks good. Similar to the shade used on the Volvo 850 T5-R too.
Someone near me has a D2 Audi S8 in bright yellow and I think it looks brilliant. Someone must have been brave to order it brand new in that hue. It's like this, but not chav'd up:
There's also a yellow Audi A4 DTM knocking about. These look ace (for an A4) in any colour, but I love it in the yellow:

There is a rather tired looking 996 near me in that colour, whenever I see it I always think to myself "that colour is bad enough on any car but why would anyone choose that colour on a Porsche".
It's my favourite ever 911 colour. All the Porsche family had their 911s in 'Forest Green'.jamieduff1981 said:
My Cerbera is painted in "Rolex Blue" which is apparently a BMW colour, with 284 in the paintcode. BMW may or may not have called it Amethyst. I don't know any more than that as I'm not particularly interested in BMWs beyond my own paint colour.
I've never noticed a BMW in this colour. Cerberas were also painted in Techno Violet as posted earlier in this thread, which I have seen on BMWs several times.
Looks like it's going sideways even when stopped I've never noticed a BMW in this colour. Cerberas were also painted in Techno Violet as posted earlier in this thread, which I have seen on BMWs several times.
