Primary Color Green.
I want a green that can sit next to Ferrari Red and look as if they're from the same set of crayons.
Not metallic.
Not metal flake.
Not neon.
Not lime.
Not forest green.
Not minivan/suv green.
Not British Racing Green.
The green with no name... Just "Green".
No cars on the road are primary color green. For some reason, car manufacturers can't even understand the concept.
Of course, you'd have to make sure there was no trace of yellow on the car anywhere or it'd look like John Deere Green.

I would go with something Non OEM. The paint will flake either way if the quality sucks. Do something different, otherwise just find an OEM color car you like and buy it.

Now in all seriousness, I know what you meant. I'm just not a big green fan. I would definitely go with an orange (preferably imola) or perhaps a dark blue would be interesting.

Just because someone has room in their budget for a car payment doesn't mean that they have excess cash flow for a spontaneous paint job (especially one of decent quality). I think it's >$2K for a decent re-spray. That's not chump change for most people on here.
Edit: And don't forget the depreciation associated with re-painting a car from it's original color... for those that intend to sell or trade-in their car at some point.
