It,s much more daker green than Lizard is and it's metallic as well. You will find the colour if google it!

Just googled it, and I don't like it. If it replaced LG before my car is made, I'd have to think of alternatives. Do you know when the switchover is supposed to happen?

That’s funny. WP came out, everybody complained here about the price, lack of cage, and minimal weight savings, Porsche took it away, now everybody wants WP...
LG came out, many complained about how it looked, Porsche’s gonna take it away, now everybody is going to want LG...

I doubt lizardgreen will be changed to bamboo/mamba green just like that. That would mean changing the optional interior details, wheels and the cage over to a new colour also, or have all of them mismatched. And planning colours for production cars takes months if not years.

I seriously doubt drop the launch color. Add a green to the entire 911 lineup, yes, but they don't drop LG after every piece of advertising for the RS has it.
