Default pink or green antifreeze ?

friend bought 01 Stratus R/T Coupe with about 70,000 miles on it. will assume the the belt was changed on the v-6.
he says the anti-freeze in it was green,i thought it should be pink.
so from 03 to present .... with green anti-freeze , what are the affects ?

Original color is green. I assume if the system gets flushed you can put whatever you want in. I dont believe it is advised to mix different colors though.

Ive owned my car for 9 years. Ive helped members on another forum but most had the V6, I own the I4. I havent had to do much to mine maintenance wise except for drop the transmission and put in new bearings. I helped a guy with a similar generation Eclipse Pull his motor due to a bad bearing and install a newer motor once. We did a full timing belt job on it before it went in.
