The award for the most-pastel car goes to the Chevy Spark

Today on my way to work, I saw a Chevy Spark on the highway. It was purple, and driven by a little old lady wearing those sunglasses that go on top of regular glasses. More like metallic lavender . The official name for this color is apparently Grape Ice, and Grape Ice isn't the only pastel color available on the Spark.

In addition to Grape Ice, the Chevy Spark is also available in Lemonade, and used to be available in Techno Pink (a.k.a. Luscious Kiss Pink in Korea).

No word on why Techno Pink is no longer available on the Spark, but I did learn from Google image search that apparently taking a picture of oneself in the trunk of a Chevy Spark is a thing.

This would appear to work best if the Spark in question is Techno Pink, and you raise the package shelf for additional room. That guy doesn't look very comfy, although he seems happy enough about his predicament.

I have to admit, I like these a lot. They're such charming little cars.

I guess I'm in the other camp. There's something about the proportions that throws me off.

Agreed. One of the most horrid designs of the last few years, imho.

Don't get me wrong - I love a good econobox, but there's just something there that doesn't sit well with me.

Agreed. I live in Europe, I see tons of vehicles in this segment in real life. They all look better to far better than the Chevy.

Don't forget the 1.2L of malaise-esque power, backed by a CVT.

It's those lights, dude. They are mega levels of big, and shaped like a seam has torn and the stuffing is coming out.

I like the color options. Not sure if I'd drive any of them personally, but its cool that they're offering interesting color choices instead of red/blue/neutrals
