My dream may yet come to fruition... A 33Mhz 68040 Color Classic with 128MB of RAM and 1MB VRAM for true color internal 640x480 video, and maybe even dual ethernet.
I strongly suspect the video controller from the LC575 is the same as the LC475 (pizza box version) which doesn't support 24-bit true-colour video.
I was using true color to refer to both 16-bit and 24-bit, vs. the color palette method of 8-bit and below color (and before anyone says that 16-bit isn't true color but 24-bit is, it's already been shown that 24-bit color doesn't fully represent the color spectrum and it's not uncommon to see 36-bit color used these days to work around the limitations of 24-bit color).
Being able to do 16-bit color is primarily an interest for me when I'm running X11R6 in NetBSD.
