Sebring looks a lot like Apple green... I wonder if they have the same color code number? You know in some brochures they called Arrow Blue, Royal Blue...same code and most of the stickers said "Arrow" though...

I had a 4.5 Mercedes with all its papers, and on the window sticker it read Harvest Beige for the color, but on the body it said something different. Since the car was sold in the midwest I am sure the sales people switched the names a bit to match the buyers of the area.
Maybe the Sebring name was used to get that race track feel to the car that apple green could not do. Personally if I was going to buy the car of the year in 78 and it was a sports car, in that color, I would prefer that it was called Sebring and not apple!
Just think how the color name choice would work while picking up a girl in 78...hehehe
