Cue Pink Panther Sax Solo

Yesterday’s interesting cars had a certain theme

First a Honda Del Sol with the T-tops off on the way to lunch would be an interesting spot anyway but this one had pink wheels, spoiler and some pink flair on the badge/grille too.

License plate: PINKY

Looks like it has its own instagram although it’s private so someone more shameless than I would need to send a follow request to confirm.

But do you think the day was done?

Nah Hellen K had other ideas

I saw this low pink sportscar shape coming about a mile away in my rearview and was genuinely excited by the time it rolled past.

How often do you see anyone customizing a Jaaag? Let alone in a colour this wild

I’m gonna bet those ladies are a hoot to hang out with.

Ah yes. She was more my speed than Leather Tuscadero.

Ugh. Why would anybody paint an XK8 (my fav Jag) Pepto Bismol pink?

I hope that’s not Hel len Keller driving.

You are not familiar with the Tuscadero sisters, Leather and (of course) Pinky?

I am, I just didn’t recognize Pinky. I have a greater recollection of Leather.

My first thought was: “hey I’ve heard of a Helen K..... but hang on, I think she’s blind and deaf and dead”

I have no problem with the pink colour, there’s waayy too many basic silver/grey cars ou t there (including mine) and the XK8 isn’t anything too special. In fact they’re probably approaching the bottom of the depreciation curve as there’s plenty for $10-13k CAD around me.

Jag offered that car in BRG (of course) and a real nice dark blue as an offset to the usual boring black/white/silver.

Oh I know, I walked past a Jag dealer on my way into university most days when these were new. Still super conservative tho, the e-type at least came in red
