Actually... i've never owned a green car, either.
I've only had black, white, red, grey, and blue.
I've found i really only like black or grey.

Roadsters look great in green... particularly those from Lotus or Mazda.

I have an MGB GT parts car that appears to have been painted green with a brush. It creates no emissions (as it has no engine) and is self-recyclable. Very green!
And of course, this one is covered in minty goodness. Although with the sunburned paint these days, it's kind of a stale, half-melted mint.

I had two green honda civics in a row. People didn't even know I got a new car.
I wasn't expecting longevity

Hmm. Black, yellow, blue, red, white, brown, silver, copper, orange, gold... Many different shades of those. As well two tones and patterns.
Purple if we include motorcycles.
Ah, green. One of the Spitfires.
No pink though. Think I might try to keep it that way.

For cars I've had a very light blue Plymouth, then tan, then brown, and brown again.
I'm pretty much done with shades of brown if I can at all help it...

My Mini was some sort of BRG when I bought it. I painted it using a Jaguar BRG. I like it. I also had a VW Cabby that was green. I had a green Jeep too, now that I think about it.
Only green car I've ever owned. Strangely enough I've owned to purpleish cars - a MX-3 in creek mica blue and a Fit.
My Miata is orange. I've had red, silver, blue, black, white, green, orange, purple. Never had a gold, beige, tan or brown car.

I've owned a green TR7, Miata, Mustang, Cougar, MR2 (sorta), Alfa, and probably a few more...all in differing shades. I love green cars if is the correct green. The Mustang was kind of a bright, lime green, the others shades of BRG. My favorite green is the early '70's Porsche green though!

the first car I drove was green, if that counts ('98 Dakota Sport, with the V6, an autotragic, and RWD)
