Geez a pink mx-5 in this day and age would drive the bogans crazy! I had a bright pink xy falcon in the early '90s and used to get hassled all the time in it! Luckily it went quick :roll: used out run them :mrgreen:




I have had a few guys yell out some stupid things at me... but thats guys for you :P Pink cars are becoming alot more common these days. You see a lot of pink silvias and 180sx. Lucky your falcon could get away from them.... can't exactly say the same about the mx5 :P

Being a young lady you shouldnt have too many issues with people yelling stuff, if a man were to drive a pink MX5.........

I wouldnt have expected a guy to own a pink MX5..... oh well, his choice.


on another note, I drove my MX5 properly and legally for the first time last night, and had a few people yell stuff out.

some guy on the footpath yelled something.
two girls standing out the front of a house both went "WOOOOO!!" and started waving at me.

and today as I drove past KFC a bunch of people eating outside yelled something out.


so I have come to the conclusion that the MX5 is not the sort of car you buy if you dont want to be noticed.....

Fair enough.

Top down is one thing, and being in that sort of area, where they think a Hilux is Australian.
