There’s something joyful about a monochromatic car painted in an actual color. In today’s sea of greyscale, even a good shade of red for the bodywork stands out, but going with a bright hue and extending it to the wheels can be enough to make someone want to break into song.
Mercedes wrote a piece on the Oldsmobile Cutlass Rallye 350, sort of a small-block muscle car for those concerned about insurance costs. Every single example came from the factory absolutely drenched in Sebring Yellow, and I’m a sucker for yellow cars. While I’m not the biggest Coldplay fan on the planet, I’m always game for musical wordplay, and GreatFallsGreen absolutely crushed it:
Look at these cars
Look how they’re built for youths
And please insurers too
Yeah, they were all yellow
Fantastic stuff. On a similar note, earlier today, Jason wrote about the Countmobile from “Sesame Street”, serving up a prime opportunity for Timbales to share a classic internet joke:
Who is your favorite vampire?
The muppet from Sesame Street
He doesn’t count
Oh, I assure you he does
Last but not least, someone in Toronto is selling a normal Ford Fiesta with the unusual addition of a single coach door on the driver’s side. Now, coach doors have attracted some controversy in recent years due to the other name for them, but I reckon Ash78 toed that line quite well:
On an American hot hatch?
I thought that style of door was geared mostly towards youth in Asia.
Cheeky, cheeky. Take your gold star. Anyway, that’s all for me today, folks. Have a wonderful evening.
