Dodge Debuts Vintage-Inspired Exterior Hues for 2017
It’s no secret that Dodge’s legacy stems from the muscle car era, so it’s only appropriate that the American carmaker has an exterior color lineup to match its past. That’s why the Dodge brand has introduced a pallet of paint names that are derived from the brand’s colorful heritage.
Along with multiple new hue names, the brand has also added Green Go and Yellow Jacket colors to a lineup of limited-production hues, which currently include Plum Crazy, Sublime, and Go Mango.
