However, here are my refutations to your argument:
Green is the color of American currency, that is true. However, unless you're planning on great success in the retail market, you will probably not be seeing too much of the green stuff. In the business world, black would be the color of success. In accounting, negative numbers are traditionally written in red while positive numbers are written in black, thus the phrases "In the red" (Bad) and "In the black" (Good!).
Also, unless you plan on buying your camaro with a fairly heavy briefcase full of green money, you may want to consider getting your car accented with the color of your bank/credit card.

I'm motivated by success, not money. I don't consider myself greedy, but money is a symbol of success, and so they coincide. In this case green isn't money. It's success. In the American capitalistic society, green is success. Moreover, with a car made by an American company—yes, I'm aware the car will be made in Canada—it's okay for once to be ethnocentric about money being green.
Also remember what color means go. Green is speed on the streets. Not only will green mean go, but green will mean go successfully and defeat the car beside you at the track or on the street. While I'm not much a fan of endangering the innocent with reckless street racing, I am a fan of speed and power, and not one of stopping the car. Green is a muscle car driver's ally, and that again is why green is great.
I still reserve the right to prove how my color is superior.
