Question  is, how much are you willing to spend to "upgrade" from your current green Performer to the Lime ?  The Lime will cost you $175.  How much do you think you will get for the green?  If less than $175, is that difference in price worth it ?

I think I could get $150-$175.

Cool.     In the end, it really boils down to which color you like more and how much you are willing to spend to have it.   Rare or not, I'm not a huge fan of Lime's, so I wouldn't spend $25 to change the bowl color.   Now, if I found a Blue Gen2, or a Gen3 with which I could do a bowl swap with my Green Gen2, that would be a different story.

Around here that green would fetch $150 easily.  I'd make the switch for the lime as well.  The threshold for me would be $40, if I had to eat anything more than that and I'd keep the green.  I forget which Grillfella put the metal table on his lime but it's one of my favorite combinations.

I say Lime as I like that color better.  I almost bought a new one back in the day when you could still get them and kick myself for not buying one.  I can't find one used around here for anything.

I guess the lime is OK, but I love that forest green.  Oh wait, I live in Eugene.  That's in Oregon.  And that's as green as green can be   ...   Forest Green.

I ended up not being able to get it. It was out of town and my schedule didn't allow me to pick it up so I passed on it.

Strange, I just tried to register the lime AU Code Performer I just picked up and the website said that I couldn't register it because it was meant for another country.  I'm fairly certain the people that bought it new bought it at Crate and Barrel.
