That is very tiny. Can you post the link to where you found that? I can't read any of the text.

It was emailed to me. I will try to re-size, but I am having trouble with file size.

This concept color was called: Viper Snakeskin Green Pearlcoat. BUT, I hope you're not too far off with that color. If its similar, I will pull the trigger.

According to the salesman, the packages were mailed out to dealers and they should have actual paint samples this week. This PDF was all he has regarding colors. Doesn't look to me like Gecko and Winter Chill are depicted, they are just blank. In this PDF the oranges all look the same and dozer looks more orange than yellow......we'll all know soon though.

Everyone's monitors are different and show in RGB (as opposed to actual paint being comprised of CMYK –*VERY different). Plus PDFs are usually designated to the source program's default colorspace. These "samples" may be close, but the colors will look much different when actually applied to the vehicle. Another thing to think about is that you are looking at a small 2"x2" swatch compared to an entire vehicle of that color.

Good points. You can get some idea of relative colors (Dozer vs Crush), but not actual color. However, looking at Natural Green Pearl. That looks NOTHING like what it really looks like.
