Would you drive a yellow tin top?
like this for example. (ok, it's a convertible).
Apart from the bananana references, any pros/cons?

If it can be done it i will be done .

Light yellow only looks good on e-type jag's IMO.
I drove a bright yellow mini for a few years with no shame

I do, it is suposed tobe the most visable colour on the road.
Then the other driver can't get away with "Sorry mate I didn't see you".

I have had three yellow cars in my time. The first was a Mk3 Ford Cortina GT, the second was a VX Chevette with full body kit and the third was a
Hyundai Pony, an ex-demo car with black horses (ponies) on the front doors.
I have no problems in driving a yellow car as long as it was not yellow fading to while or yellow fading to the colour of $**t.
Here are some stock photos of the cars, I could not find a yellow Hyundai Pony.

Its not just you...
although I wouldn't have a problem driving it - just with being seen driving it
I've got this waiting as the next project (assuming the dax is ever finished )
I've never had a yellow car on the road before, but it can't be as bad as my old 'oyster gold' {read: metalic beige} 79'

not sure, black would be my first choice - never goes out of fashion; only attratcet to the yellow 911 due to price.

yeah but dat don't count - see title and reference to tin top - kit cars are driven by extroverts who go out of their way to be noticed - i am
wondering whether a bright yellow 911 is too bright and yellow for grey man who does not want to stand out from the crowd.
