The pink vet belonged to Angelena from LA the billboard queen I understand. It was originally whiite and has been repainted white and I purchased it for resale purposes. Its a 2002, great car will consider any offers.

In Schaumburg, IL there are a pair of pink Hummers parked in front at the Chevy dealer on Rt 58 Golf Road.

My wife is not blond, but sure looks good in pink (actually in any color). If she really wanted a pink Vette, I'd get a convertible and make it so. But she'd have her own and leave my Bowling Green alone.

Ya thats Angeline, Dont really know her deal but she has been driving pink Vettes for ever.
She had a pink c4 before that one, now probably has a pink c6. I heve seen her several times over the years, and always in a pink Vette.

Dont know the whole story but ever since i can remeber you would see billboards of her that just say "Angeline" with a photo of her. They never say anything else, like selling anything, no contact info etc. just her.
Urban legend is she is taken care of by a rich dude and loves the "fame" and "attention" she generates, but really isnt anything more then a self created fame. Kinda interesting, no one really knows who she is or why she makes billboards of herself..
But she is of local fame....Famous for what I dont know and I have lived here for 20 years. Thats LA for ya, all hype.....
