The mint turquoise is definitely a unique color,,, I’ve had plenty of compliments. Back in the day I probably wouldn’t have bought one but the color has grown on me. Your car looks good. Mine came with saddle interior which wasn’t on pontiacs preferred list with that exterior color but someone ordered it like that…the dealership I think.
