yes it did
It came out just after I bought my mariner blue NA6.. I was spewing.

I have no pic of it.

it was also sold for less than what I paid for my Mariner blue as a special edition.

Its possible that it was only the australian version which got the palm tree & stripe along the door. I thought your one actually had it on as well.

So who wins the bet? haha

no one yet.....I have4n't been able to find a pic. AJjay's car did not have it after all. Nor does Jules's
But I'm willing to get my backside whipped by Elle McPherson if I'm wrong.
but maybe jules took his sticker off.

I'd take the sticker off too, who would want a palm tree on the car?

I have looked everywhere for a pic I can't find one either, you sure it was not just a sydney Mazda thing that was like two or three demo cars? I do recall seeing a pic once of one I think.

Its probably an Australian thing.....Because it was advertised as an special edition. It came with a boot release & CD and was either the same price $31k or something but I was pissed off because it was a month after I'd bought my Mariner Blue. So that would make it around Nov 1991.

I believe that there was a used car review of a Malibu in an old issue of Motor mag.

and I think it had the palm tree!


I shall see if I can dig up the magazine over the weekend.

me too

NEWS FLASH "Elle McPherson has gone into hiding".

ROFLMHO........that's hardly surprising. .
But really, It sounds like she's a little misinformed. She' doesn't need to worry.

but the interesting thing is there just isn't any pics around.


Could Jules please report to he Front Desk Please.

I never saw a palm tree or striping on the Victorian malibus when they were released?
Coulda been a once-off for the car reviewers, or a particular dealer?

Come on people!!!!

STM needs a good whipping.(Or should that be WANTS)


Uh!!! Elle where are you.

Yes it's true. Simone is right. Pics to follow.

Jules

Well it's a start. Juffa's old Malibu had them. The palm trees are on the front fender and the blue and aquamarine lines run along the bodywork.

I've seen quite a few, but most owners remove them along with the front Mazda bumper sticker.
Juffa should have some better images.





I have never seen these on a non-Australian car.

Bye
Jules

so Ajays backside is being whipped by Simone as we speak?
