dark emerald color?
Can someone post a pic of the type S in this color? I've seen all the other colors and am deciding between the Aegean Blue or the Emerald...
...assuming I don't hop the border an hour away and pick up the Eternal Blue in Canada!!

Unfortunately, I don't have pictures yet. 
Emerald is a lot more subtle than the Blue, which is good or bad, depending on what you're looking for. I was afraid it would be too dark, but now that I have it, I think it's really pretty. The dark green on the Accord is pretty similar, and there are quite a few of those out there.
Of course, for me, the interior was at least as important -- I wanted the parchment interior, not the black.

How's this? Or, next time you are driving around, see if you can spot a green Accord. Shouldn't be too hard. The color is about the same.

To compare the two is definitely an injustice! Even trying to compare a black Honda with a black Acura. Sure, they are both black - - but the Acura practically sparkles. Just my 2 cents.Trending Topics
