One of the local guys painted his corvette that color and later added a wild pinstripping and I really liked it. He did not and now it is moroon.
I didn't mind the pink with the pinstripping

Personally I dont like the color. I think that is why you dont see many pink cars around. I dont think that color does any car justice. Not even a "Pink Cadillac" as sung by Bruce Springsteen.
