I don't normally call for the destruction of any Miata, especially an NA, but this one deserved it just for the way it brings reinforces all of the "girl's car" stereotypes:
It's like a Barbie toy come to life, complete with glitter in the paint - seriously. I think it was an automatic, so like the ones mutilated on Mythbusters, it was no great loss.

Pull all the useful parts off it and crush the rest. Those body panels can be stripped and repainted.

There are too many of these 'things' out there in the wild.

Poor little crunchy Miata. Wait, why did they paint the window frames pink, too?! Was this a LeMons car?

So girls aren't allowed to have a miata or customize it to their liking? Way to perpetuate the boys club.

Man. I was parking at the local grocery...and this woman pulled up in a purple mirage (DAT PURPLE THO) and when she parked beside me I told her I liked her car the colour was awesome and she said "are you being sarcastic?" And I was like "no...colourful cars are awesome beige is boring" and she said "oh..usually guys make fun of me..." ...what is wrong with us?
Beige is boring.

My first car was pink. It was a hand-me-down from my grandma, who had previously rocked a purple T-bird. My dad also drove The Pink Nightmare in the year between my grandma giving it to us and me getting my license.
My dad is a civil engineer who mainly works at construction sites. Once, someone made fun of his pink car. Once .
Moral of the story: don't fuck with a New York biker and his pink car.
Second moral of the story: anyone who hates on a pink car is clearly just insecure because they're not tough enough to drive one themselves. Haters gonna hate.

And boys aren't allowed to like pink either? Fuck that!

I have a real thing for pink cars, lose the glitter and I'd rock this (pre-crash of course.)

The car in the second and third pics look pretty good to me besides the cheap skirts.

I do really hate pink though. I would never ever ever wear or drive anything pink.

Honestly I'm not even a huge fan of it either (favorite colors are purple, yellow, and blue), but there's personal taste vs irrational "EW IT'S GIRLY KILL IT WITH FIRE"

Nah. Pink is fine. Could have been someone with a good sense of humor.

In retrospect, I may have been wrong. I've got nothing against pink cars, although I wouldn't drive one myself, and am all in favor of paint colors other than the usual silver, red, black and white. Give me a good green or yellow and I'll be happy. I think it was the combination of Miata and pink that I didn't care for. After years of trying to shed the "girl's car" image, this combo just seemed to set back any progress that was made on that front.
