I have no memory of green cars being popular in the 90's although it seems like they would have stood out (and been pretty ugly, probably). Weird how memory works.

It was mostly dark green like with classic Jaguars from what I remember. Nothing like the light green that's in the charts.

As a previous owner of a green โ€˜95 Ford Escort, I disagree.

This kind of color was popular in the '90s (note the purple pinstripes, BTW):

Dark green was around too, of course, but the bright teal was definitely having a moment.
