New Cat Green... Love it or Hate it?

[gettis]

I must say I am somewhat repulsed by the NEW GREEN from Arctic Cat. I love my M8 and would love to buy a New LE but that new green is repulsive. Why can't Cat just make a good clean looking sled that people would actually buy instead of being the laughing stock of the industry when it comes to choosing colors.
I truly feel Cat has the best performing stock mountain sled on the market today but I can't see me burning my retinas out on that hideous green unit everyday.
Will have to go for the White SP I guess or wait until next year for a Nightfire.........

Just my two cents.

Cheers!

Kind of with you it is a little rough, but I would like to see it in person first. I did not like the new dodge body style when it first came out and know I have one and love it.
One thing is for sure your ride buddies will not lose you

I'm not really a green guy, but I think it looks kind of cool.

I think its cool to be unique- the sled has character for sure. I'd like to see it in person.

its not a NEW green, go back and look at some old Cat racers

I'd like to see it in person, but I think the pics look bad azz..I hate the new coloration on the seats...its way to much and looks stupid...but the sprind order is by far my fave.

I personally have never liked Arctic Cat green, but the new green is really bad.

Maybe because I started with Polaris I never took a liking to it, but its bad IMO.

I really like Orange, Red, Blue and Black. White isn't bad, but I just like colors better. Never been a fan of yellow either.

I would like to have a blue or red hood on my M just to be different.

frickin ugly in my opinion love cat but that spring order green neeeds to go,

 

[Frostbite]

Add me to the "repulsive" camp.

I have never been a fan of Arctic Cat green either but, in my opinion, this is the worst yet.

 

[sled-fiend]

I'm not a fan either, IMO the 08 nightfire is the best looking to date!

X2! I kind of like the new green though, it's something different. But I would rather have it murdered out.

Limited Green

I love it. I think it looks awesome. It's different and obnoxious which makes it bad a$$.

 

[Puddy Tat]

It is a very unique color That’s for sure I want to see it in person before I judge it!!!!
Who know's we all just mit fall in love with it!!!! And if not they make sled Wraps.

 

[bigcat_ak]

Whats to hate?? They are stickers. They come off!!

 

[trax]

like greeneman said, right away it looks terrible but then all of a sudden it sneaks up on you and your riding one with a smile. Thats the way it is with everything "nobody likes change" and then all of a sudden "its awesome". My buddy is a dealer and I was talking to him last night when he was there in Vegas. I asked him about the green and he said the first 3 or 4 times looking at it he wasnt to keen on the color but after that he said it started to look kinda BADA$$. He said that you gotta see it up close, caus the pics dont do it. Personally I hated the M's when they came out and now I am happy as a pig in poo on my sno camo m10. But my King Cat still Rocks!!

I could'nt giva a rat azz about the color,I would of loved to see some updates on the ageing M series platform.More horse power in the M1k,better fit and finish,first factory two stoke turbo or even the first with a 174"track.Maybe even a 16" track,but nothing new really.
Green,black or white with BNG will not motivate me to go out and purchase a 2011.I was really looking forward and hoping for something new and innovative for the 2011 lineup.
Oh well maybe next season.I don't mind the green though but color is not what motovates me to spend the big bucks on a new model.

My thoughts exactly! Would have been very easy to bump the M1000 up 10 to 20 horse and maybe lose a little weight. Should keep the aftermarket people happy.

With all the haters out there, at least this way it really might be a "limited edition". I like it. Even the decal scheme has some nice clean lines to it. Looks sharp.

Beauty is, with this lineup, if you want a black sled, look for a leftover '10 - you won't miss out on any "new features" you couldn't easily buy with the savings anyway.
