That's how I felt when I got my first Mirage. That hot pink colour was just downright offensive.
Now I love it and I wouldn't have it any other way. I even buy random crap in that hot pink colour because it matches the car. Other dudes in the office think I'm crazy but if you're gonna drive a pink car, you better OWN that colour. Besides, the only colour that drives faster than red is pink. :P
