No "green" Fit?

No color option of green for the Fit?

In fact, few to no hyrbids offer green as an exterior color option. Do manufacturers avoid making green green cars? Or do people just not like green cars and therefore they avoid offering the option?

I like green- always loved the sage green of the older Passats. Sage is probably too sophisticated a color for the Fit.
I also like the green on the Kia soul and think it it would work for the Fit.
Green is one of the least popular car colors. My daughter and son-in-law got a Subaru Crosstrek and it is a dull orange--I call it the pumpkin. It also comes in this cool kind of khaki green color-looks grey/green- I really like that color--but it would not look good on a Fit--too military and rugged for the fun little Fit, but the other shade of green it comes in- would look good on a Fit.

Green is known as the least popular color, at least among car journalists and dealers. It's an earthy color for outdoorsy types--usually offered by Subaru and Jeep. However, even the Wrangler went a year without green until they brought out "Tank" for 2015.

That said, the Prius is available in Sea Glass Pearl and the Prius C in Summer Rain Metallic. These are light shades I think would look good on a fit.

The Mazda 2 has a bright lime green color. That would make the FIT stand out!

I had a '98 Subaru Outback in a foresty type of green called spruce pearl.
