Default Cactus Green vs. Desert Green

I know that there have been quite a few color questions lately, but I can't help myself.<br>I am first on list in Cleveland for a 225Q and was thinking of getting it in Desert Green but was kind of worried because I wouldn't be able to see the color before I chose.<br>I saw a "cactus green" A4 today, and really liked the color, does anyone know if cactus green is lighter/darker nicer/worse then the TT's Desert Green.<p>Thanks in advance.<br>

If you want to see a couple of pics of the desert green, click on the search link, then type in "green TT" without the quotes. Look for a posting entitled "Hmmm, let's try this again".

I've seen pictures, but colors look different in real world. nt

Default To the best of my knowledge, this color has not been released anywhere in the world just yet, so I doubt that many have seen it in person (nt)

I have seen Desert Green on a European spec TT. It is not very similar to Cactus Green, even though they are about the same value in terms of light and dark. I would almost describe it as more of a grey-green, with none of the gold undertone which Cactus has. It has a lot of metallic content, so it reflects the car's lines very well.

How about avocado green, like they had in the 1970s? I think the color is too funky. I would buy one in a nice metallic forest green in a heartbeat...but the denim blue is a real stunner.
