Name that color

I have found a color I will get my truck painted when the original paint gets worse. It is on www.ARBUSA.com.
It is right after a Jeep on what looks to me like a Land/Range Rover. It has a hint of green tint to it.
What would you call this color? (Besides ugly)
(Also would like a blue similar to the green)

It appears to be a Tri-coat. Maybe green pearl over white basecoat.
The new Caddys have something similar.

I like it though. Maybe I'll mess with the computers color palatte in a bit to see if I can come close. It helps pick out paint colors for my house so it can work for my baby.

Anyone else like it? It the kind of color that looks like it would almost glow on a dreary day and make someone look a few times.

The mail just arrived. Thanks Jim.
Now, who makes a high quality paint. All I know is House Of Kolor is supposed to be good. I like the "Rootbeer" color that they painted the PT Cruiser on, I think, Pimp My Ride.
This is all for future references now.

URP...if Mary Kay was Irish enough, that is what all their cars would look like
My vote for the name game: int Ice Mint
My favorite real name for a color, the Mopar guys will know this one and plenty more no doubt: Statutory Grape
