Is there such a thing as a "mint green" S14 Kouki? Pics?

[AGPSuperstar]

There's this guy selling his and states that it's a "mint green" S14 Kouki and says its a stock color. This is the first time I've seen this color on an S14. From what I remember, it was a kinda silverish light green. Do you guys have any pics of one? Reason why is I only had a glimpse of the car so I forgot what the color looked like. Appreciate it!

[louis110]

maybe he meant that the paint was mint condition, and the colour itself is green.

[Shift_Drift_S13]

or maybe it's the color of mint... like ande's mints, that light green color?

[240drifter1]

Its called silver moss, best (imo), (and one of the rarest) colors on a kouki.

(not my s14)

damn...its like gunmetal and green... sexy.

[ej2civic]

silver moss FTW

[aznpoopy]

color is hot as fawk in person.

a local had a 97 silver moss until he crashed it. -_-"

[RoyalFlush]

theres only two koukis in my town and both of them are silver moss.

[axiomatik]

those are bad pics of the color, they make it look more grey than it really is. but yes, it is a factory color. it's called Silver Moss, and it is the rarest s14 color. it's not very 'minty', though, my car is much more minty than silver moss.

[Bryants95240sx]

yeah the silver moss doesnt look minty at all.imo

[LB.Motoring]

heres a more daytime shot to see the color..

i was under the impression that 'deep fuschia' was the rarest oem s14 color.

i've seen a bunch of silver moss cars, and only two of the deep fuschia. ever.

[SaintlyCharBoy]

i've seen pictures of two deep fuscia cars, but only ever seen Sean's ^^

i was (also) under the impression that his kouki, 5 speed, se deep fuscia was most likely the most limitedest edition 240sx period

[lil240sx95]

those two silver moss are crazy nice!!!!!!!! how much do you think that paint job would cost????

[projectRDM]

Deep Fuscia is the rarest color made on Koukis, followed by Starfire Blue.

[bigOdom1]

starfire blue looks great too. i think nissan did a great job on the colors of the s14

[Full-Lock]

ive seen silver moss like a billion times, ive only seen that 'deep fuschia' once.

[Phlip]

I am agreeing with the rareness of the Deep Fuschia, but I have only seen the Starfire blue once in my life, it was for sale too but I didn't have cash, didn't want to finance, and I am not interested in a Kouki, so I left it.

[MavericStephenc]

starfire blue......pics n e one i've donea search and cant find it

[mrmephistopheles]

Starfire Blue is my favorite 14 color.

[eastcoastS14]

^^ yeah starfire blue is sick

[C. Anderson]

I dont see many of the purplish blue (bp3) either. It was only offered on 96 models.

^^or you could just paint urs.

starfire blue is nice, but not as impressive in person as the deep fuschia IMO.

while we're on OEM paint schemes, anyone have any pics of the dark purple color that came on late-model 180sx??
i've seen a few in videos, but only been able to take a good look at the color in gran turismo :duh:

no, "gripgambler" is a one-off purple. nice, but not what i was lookin for.

[AGPSuperstar]

Damn thanks a lot guys~!

[hellion240sx]

i have a 97 with the silver moss.i rarely see another in that color. i have seen black, never starfire blue tho. hmmm. if ever i change any color on my s13 or s14, i think i will go with starfire blue. but i have never seen it in person, so i can't tell what it will look like. i was thinking about sapphire blue. seen it on a jag XK8 and fell in love. satrfire looks nice. how is it at night? i would like it looking nlack almost, like the maxima/murano blue. hey agp, i saw your post on nosr.org. getting into 240's? wish i had a sunroof and stick!!! but other than that i love it. the pics above are super nice jobs. mine's aaaaaaall stock at the moment!

dang sick ass color.. i have never ever seen that color.. clean.. latah

[sncs14]

Mine is silver moss. I've seen one starfire blue in person. To my recollection I've never seen a deep fuscia kouki in person. If I came across a deep fuscia for the right price that bish would be mine. Starfire blue is alright, but not my cup of tea. Silver moss is my favorite. Deep fusaia I would have to have just because of the rarity, though, many people I have talked to dislike it.

[aznpoopy]

i saw a deep fuscia once. its definitely a nice color. it was driven by a middle aged black lady who gave me a thumbs up and then floored it down the highway. that was a weird day.

[bryce with a y]

shits mad sexy, is all i know.

and after the whole flashy 240 thing comes down like it did with hondas acouple years ago, everyone will be feining to paint there cars this OEM color.

[midnight zenki]

When I saw this I immediatly thought of Midori Green from the ek civic hatches.

[240sx]

i was under the impression that 'deep fuschia' was the rarest oem s14 color.

Totally rare colour for sure. I've seen 3 up here in Canada. Only one was 5 speed. Starfire blue is even more rare in Canada. Overall, I think we only got like 2000 something koukis for 97-98. Manuals even less..

[DaN_S13]

The Starfire Blue and Deep Fuschia (Damson over here) are fairly common in the UK. Emerald Green ones aswell. I had a Fuschia kouki, one of the nicest colors in my opinion...it's a shame it got totaled.:(

[aznpoopy]

blue emerald is very common here as well. personally i think it looks like ass. probably because i own one.

Got a high res of that??

[jiggs]

so the deep fushia is the rarest color? after is the silver moss?

[derek_s13]

i don't think anyone here KNOWS for sure, but i think this thread's shown
1 - deep fuschia
2 - starfire blue (not zenki bluish/purple)
3 - silver moss

maybe it's a toss-up between 2 and 3 there. i dunno.
pretty sure fuschia and starfire came only on kouki, making them even more desirable.

nah, not me. that guy is a mod/creator? of 240sxone.com, one of our few local forums. linky:
