I wonder.....exactly how many pink 'vettes DID Mary Kay Cosmetics buy or have built? Anyone know? Do they bring a premium because of rarity?

I went to Dallas last weekend and saw a Pink '77 on 69 (that's Hiway 69 ) for sale just north of McCallister Oklahoma (I belive, just before hiway 40). I think it was priced at $7,900. I didn't stop... already queasy from the Taco Cabana stop.

I am by no means a fan of a pink car but what about the days when The Mopars were offered in "panther pink" I haven't heard of those cars getting razzed as much?

I think there is room for pink and other gay colored cars, but only for attractive women to drive. A man in such a car is just wrong unless he's...*Cough-GAY-cough.*

No crap, my girl Sarah wants a C3 in the light blue they make the new Beetle in.

I'm thinking since I want a '73, BB, manual...that's what I would paint it. I would drive that color so long as it has manly rims, pipes, and a burley big block.

This pic doesn't really do the color justice. It looks a LOT better in person.
