Does anyont have any real life pics of Tahiti Green? I know that theres a lot of forum members not liking this color. But personally I really like it . I've seen pics of it in the brochure, but maybe someone already ordered it and would like to share.:

I should have taken pics in Germany, I saw one there. Definitely the color I would have gotten if I could have.

IIRC, there was a thread in 1ddicts from a Canadian 1 series event that had a pic of a 1er in Tahiti Green. Let me try and track it down...

EDIT: Found it. It was cloudy and rainy, there are a couple of pictures. Here's one:

Ooh, that is purty. If I hadn't really wanted the Coral leather, I might have gotten that!

Have to say, as much as I'd never get that color, it looks much better in the photo than the brochure sample would suggest. The name is unfortunate... 'Tahiti Green' reminds me of gastric problems from improperly cooked street food...

An interesting color, but a bit too conservative. That's probably true with all the 1 colors. The only one they seem to take a chance on was Sedona and that's not as agressive as it might have been.

Perhaps you should go to the islands of Tahiti to see the amazing hues of blue and green in the lagoon water there. Quite simply one of the most surreal sights ever.

"Tahiti green" makes me think much more of this than food poisoning:
