Wrong! My Dad had a similar Tempest when I was young, he sold it right before I got my permit.

Friend of mine had a yellow Lotus Elise for a few years. Fun as hell to ride in, even though I barely fit in the damn thing.

One of my earliest car memories was my dads canary yellow Grand Prix. I was just learning to read, asked my dad what a grand prix was. Him and my brother both snickered. Took me a a few more years to learn the meaning of 'pricks'.

Bright yellows are fine.
Dingy yellows are not. Gold is the worst color for a car. |

I've never thought about it, but yeah, yellow is really bad.
Puke green is worse though.

yes. at least with a pink car everyone knows you are joking. the sad thing is that while a lambo or a Ferrari may be cool enough to pull off being yellow 90% of the time its some v6 mudstain or a ranger.

How about airplanes ???
 I haven't chosen a final scheme yet but it'll be down to Toyota Voodoo Blue with a darker yellow or a really obnoxious bright yellow with a dark blue/purple. I'm going to paint some samples once the current Stearman wing is finished in the paint booth... |

I'm going to change the tail to the same tapered stripes as the wing and also only have a single lengthwise tapered stripe. I have about a month before I need to make a final decision. |

Yellow adds 3 mpg
more than turning off the air conditioner. It only looks good on select cars though, and no trucks. So op sorta has a point. |

A girlfriend had a VW Corrado in yellow. Despite the color, we were always getting people trying to hit us during lane changes.
Fun car, but a piece of shit. The damn door holder broke and was a big pain in the ass to fix once I waited long enough to get the part. |

That said, myself and a friend have a laundry list of aircraft we'd like to own for a year or two, then sell and move to a different aircraft. The P26 is kinda cool in the "I'm gonna tear up the pattern at the grass strip this evening". That said, with only 2 flyable ones remaining, I don't think we'll see one in our pattern....  |
