Open Season For Pinkies!


They say they are all pink inside. A surprising number is pink on the outside, as our weekly hunt for the crimson cars certifies, so much that our mailbox at shootthepink@gmail.com is all pink inside…

This time, the hunt starts with a big game trophy. Reader Kevin Jaeger bagged this pink cement truck in Ottawa, Canada. "Not something you see at every construction site," Kevin says, and we agree. There are more …

"Your wife's?" asks Anon Random (most likely not his real name, if it is, our condolences.) Frau Schmitto-san denies any ownership, but says: "Eeeeeeh! My girlfriend's pink Porsche. She owns that garage in Akasaka – she can buy one a day with the money she makes there."

"This carcass of a car was being hauled north on I-75 between Fort Myers and Tampa, FL.  My guess is that it's a long-dead GT40 kit car," writes Multicam from Florida. With all that Bondo, the picture nearly didn't pass our strict acceptance rules (all pink) – but we make an exception.

First gen Miata, caught by thefronge at an autocross held at Fort Devens Airfield in Ayer MA.

Thefronge receives extra credit (five pink slips) for shaving the presence of mind (and camera) for a video.

Thank you for sending so many pink cars to shootthepink@gmail.com. The kill was so plenty that we will run another pink installmnent tomorrow.

Hunt the pinkies! Send pictures of pink cars to shootthepink@gmail.com. Please enclose your TTAC screen name for proper credit. If you forget it, we'll publish your pinkies under your full name.

And may the pink be with us.
