1957 Chevrolets in Highland Green Poly with Surf Green (top).

I've always been fond of the Lamborghini Murcielago painted in Celeste Cepheus:

Saw one at car week looked great in person and this one was a manual too

Pretty standard colour actually.

But if you meant the car, then yes, definitely.
 
Almost every 3rd generation BMW Z4 I see is in San Francisco Red, which...looks okay. But seeing the new Z4 in Misano Blue in person was different. Looks great on the car!

Working at a BMW dealership, all the 2nd generation Z4s I'd see would be either white, silver, or black... So it's nice to see the Z4 get some more colorful options.
 
Orange-on-orange Porsche 959. Odd, but it's so 1980s that it somehow fits.



Apple Green Metallic... it seems that this color was only offered on the RS7 and not any other Audi model.





Keeping with the theme, here's Lime Green, seemingly available only on the TT-RS. Sharp.



 
It is however atrocious on the Spark/Sonic or whatever GM's small car is called nowadays.

I doubt that bright-as-can-be green would look good on any new economy car.
 
I actually think the Camaro looks terrible in bright green, and really dig this:

You guys are weird.
That purple looks pretty cool too.

I don’t think the Spark looks at all bad in that lime green, but it would probably look much worse in the Camaro’s Krypton Green. The like green you have pictured may be bright, but it’s far more subtle and less likely to be tacky looking.
