When I first started reading posts tonight (after the change) the only color difference I noticed was the light-green ones. At first glance, all the other levels looked the same normal black. Until I looked closer in several other threads (and saw it mentioned that each level of quoting was colored differently), I didn't notice the difference at all. I still think that if it can be done, each user should be able to set "preferences" for the color(s) of quoted text. I would choose all levels of previous quoting to be red and the normal text to be black, but I know a ton of people would absolutely hate it.
