From British Racing to Lime, join us for a browse of the most appealing green supercars on the market right now.
If there's one thing we love seeing about supercars these days, it's a bold variety of specs and colours you don't see every day. Some of these are outrageous and out there, some are more subtle. One prominent thing is the resurgence of the colour green, as wonderfully celebrated by the page @makegreengreatagain on Instagram.
That uprising, and one car from this list, has inspired my most recent window shopping spree, which I hope you'll join me for below.
2024 (74) | 2,500 Miles | £147,950
Podium Green Metallic
I could have written this entire article on Astons alone, they are so frequently specified in green, but I chose this one to start, being the latest, refreshed, and massively enhanced Vantage.
The Podium Green Metallic paint from Aston Martin's Racing Line is striking yet retains the class you'd expect of an Aston, which is more than can be said for its brutal character, with a snarling V8 and a seriously potent 680hp going through the rear wheels.
This is a no-joke muscle car dressed for dinner, it's received glowing write ups from the press, and yet it hasn't managed to buck the trend of Aston Martin's initial depreciation, so this one offers a hefty saving off list price.
2024 (74) | 6,172 Miles | £139,950
Flux Green
Another latest model from a British brand, the Artura is perhaps underrated as a whole, but listening to those who actually own them in our WhatsApp community showed a pretty unanimous love for the way they drive.
690hp from its hybrid drivetrain means insane punch, and its carbon monocoque chassis means things don't fall apart at the sight of a bend either. This colour, from McLaren's Elite range, is Flux Green, as in the Axial Flux E-Motor used in its powertrain.
Much like the Vantage, the Artura has certainly not turned around McLaren's reputation for initial depreciation. This car's new price would have been comfortably north of £200,000, so a drive's worth of fuel under £140k makes it seem like a lot of car for the money.
2023 (23) | 200 Miles | £279,995
Verde Scuro
This is the car that inspired this article. We're not used to seeing Ferraris in green, and when I saw this F8 pop up on Alexanders Prestige's Instagram, I just thought, "woah!".
Verde Scuro is a two-layer finish from Ferrari's Extra Range, and is perfectly paired with an interior much more traditionally Ferrari — Crema. With the top down, this contrast looks awesome, it's something different, and if you've seen Paul's video on the F8 Spider on our channel, you'll know it's a mega thing and a bit of a rarity too.
2022 (22) | 5,576 Miles | £159,991
Python Green
What Porsche is doing with its colour palette is really refreshing. Even until fairly recently, if you wanted a bold colour that wasn't Guards Red or Racing Yellow, you had to dig deep and make best friends with your Porsche dealer in the hope of being granted a PTS allocation.
For the 992, we had the introduction of Shark Blue, and this, Python Green, making every drive a brighter experience with more diverse specs. If the colour wasn't bright enough, it has been extended to the front fascia (like on the GT3 Touring), and this GT3 embraces its race car for the road persona with Porsche decals, a racing roundel and white wheels.
It won't be for everyone, but if you want to stand out from the crowd, this is you'll have no trouble in this.
2016 (16) | 7,521 Miles | £284,950
Verde Mantis
Time for another Aston Martin, but not in an Aston Martin colour! This is a one-off GT12, special ordered in Verde Mantis — a bold green most often seen on the Lamborghini Huracan. It's far from a shade you'd expect of an Aston, but given the GT12's race car looks and aggressive character, it somehow works.
£18,000 magnesium wheels finish off the exterior, and an £8,750 Bamford Rose exhaust upgrade ensures the bark of that V12 doesn't let the side down. With just 100 built worldwide, this is a very special hallmark of the final generation of naturally-aspirated Astons.
1972 | 52,000 Miles | £399,990
Verde Pino
Yep, another green Ferrari — sort of. Whilst Ferrari built the Dino, Dino was its own standalone brand and try as you might, you won't find any prancing horses on a Dino.
Despite being the 'budget' option in its day with just six cylinders, it's one of the most beautiful designs in history and values have gone through the roof in recent years as it becomes more and more appreciated, and this car, faithfully restored in its original colour of Verde Pino Metallizzato over beige interior is absolutely stunning.
1975 | 41,550 Miles | £69,950
Verde Testudo
If you like a bit of '70s, mid-engined Italian exotica but a Dino is in financial dreamland, say ciao to the vastly more attainable Maserati Merak SS. You might remember Clarkson choosing one of these for a Top Gear challenge in 2005 where the presenters each had £10,000 to choose a budget supercar — yes, ten grand!
That challenge didn't end so well for Clarkson's Merak, but this example has been maintained to the highest standards and has benefitted from a recent restoration in Verde Testudo Metallizzato.
Fun fact: it was once owned by Andy Leek of Dexys Midnight Runners and features on the cover of his 1980 single, Move On (In Your Maserati).
2021 | 10,250 Miles | £62,995
Empire Green
Not a supercar, but a great driver's car and another more attainable option. Plus, what's better than green? Green over tan, of course!
The GT410 turns the Evora up to 11 with more raw performance but keeping an edge of refinement and comfort that makes them usable daily on the road. 410hp from a glorious sounding supercharged V6 only has 1,360kg to lug around, which combined with a manual 'box, is just about the perfect recipe for a road-going sports car.
2022 (22) | 4,000 Miles | £194,950
Verde Hydra
We're used to seeing green Lamborghinis, but not so much in deep, subtle greens like Verde Hydra. It's a stunning colour which pairs beautifully with the silver wheels, and offers a bonkers-looking car a touch of elegance.
This is the rear-wheel-drive Evo model with carbon fibre bucket seats, so it's a great choice for keen drivers who want to fly under the radar. Think of it as a toned down STO, with a boot, dressed for dinner somewhere classy.
2004 | 939 Miles | £199,950
Aston Green
The third and final Aston of the list is a special one, and if the GT12 wasn't rare enough being one of 100, this is one of 99, and is actually chassis #001. The AR1 is a drop-top version of the DB7 Zagato, the AR in the name stands for 'American Roadster' as it exists due to demand from the US after the DB7 Zagato wasn't offered to the US market.
It retains the DB7 Vantage's 6.0-litre V12 and Touchtronic automatic transmission, so it's likely more of a fast cruiser, but it might be one of the most beautiful cruisers of them all. Better hope for some sunshine, as the DB AR1 has no roof, just a simple rain cover to protect that cream leather when parked.
Being one of just 99 and having covered just 939 miles from new, you might expect such a rarity to be even more expensive. If you want something you'll never see another of at a Supercar Driver meet, this one's for you.
2022 | 9,441 Miles | £1,375,000
Birch Green
Let's finish with the brightest and most expensive by some margin. The RUF SCR is one of just 70 worldwide, and it's refreshing to see this, the first customer example, has done a good few thousand miles a year, rather than existing as a Birch Green ornament.
Whilst it might look like a modified 964, it was built from scratch by RUF on a bespoke carbon fibre monocoque chassis with carbon fibre bodywork. Even better than that, it's powered by a 4.0-litre Mezger-derived flat six which puts out 510 to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual, and thanks to the carbon construction, it weighs just 1,250kg. Carbon ceramic brakes and KW V5 coilovers help it stop and turn as well as it goes and looks.
If you've very much won at life and want one of the ultimate driver's '911s', this is for you!
