This weekend, I spotted the new Corvette Stingray<\/a> in Cacti Green driving down Campbell Parade making a lot of very tasty noise. It stopped my friends and I in our tracks. \u201cWTF was that colour?\u201d I believe were the words we uttered. <\/p>

We took a pair of Stingrays for a spin through Sydney not long ago, and seeing this fashionable green beast cruising through Bondi, I can safely say this is the toughest-looking Corvette Stringrays I\u2019ve seen in years. Whoever bought it has serious confidence, and they deserve credit for that. <\/p>

After a decade of greys, silvers and matte blacks, brands are finally bringing colour back. Porsche has its Python Green, Lamborghini has Verde Scandal, Aston Martin has Racing Green. GM decided to do something different. Green cars are back in fashion. Big time.<\/p>

Now, for the ill-informed, Cacti Green isn\u2019t a loud lime or deep British tone. It\u2019s a strange mix of military khaki and neon glow that manages to look both aggressive and stylish. It reminds me of a Ferrari I saw years ago on the Cavalcade in a similar hue.<\/p>

Parked on Campbell Parade, it looked like some long-lost concept car that somehow made it to production. In bright sunlight, it almost buzzes. Under shade, it turns deep and moody. It\u2019s the kind of colour that changes your opinion every time you look at it. <\/p>
