I happen to like yellow - it's the SECOND yellow car I own, the other is '60's muscle, and is also a similar shade of pale yellow.

JEEZ.

Whoa.. too much hostility there. I hope you're joking, because nasty language isn't necessary over the preference of color.

i like how he said yellow is not pink

so he saying pink is a girls color

so hes really making the same comment as the OP just subbing in another color then yellow yet hes getting pissy because somebody made a comment about his yellow car lol

great job!

Hostile? I suppose it could sound like that after these representative comments:

PETERPOOP: It looks like a piss yellow.

Bob Dog: I had a 78 Pinto that exact color. I loved it for about two weeks, then it embarassed me.

k r a y z e e . j o j o: Hate how it's faded. It's like some kind of aged funky 70's muscle car color

Sabretooth: ...they just thought a cute yellow would look good on the Yaris, it failed..

You don't hear me or anyone else saying this stuff about Meteorite Metallic or Bayou Blue or whatever color YOUR Yaris is. WHATEVER. Opinions are fine ("not as bright as I'd like"), but this thread turned to negativity early on. I will, however, edit my previous post.

P.S. Perhaps the poster who bought a '78 Pinto should have been more embarrassed about the PINTO itself then then the darn color.

Really? If two newborns are side by side and one is dressed in pink, can one generally assume that baby is a girl? I think the answer is yes, because pink has historically been a feminine color. (I deliberately chose PINK because of that reason, and the fact that it's not a factory Yaris color.) The poster in question said "its look like a woman`s car" referring to not only Yellow Jolt but the Yaris wearing it. I think that pissy would be a pretty common response of our male membership if THEIR cars were subjected to the same comments.

PS - I was not trying to malign the color pink in my posts here. Everything has it's place and time.

so what your saying is you bought the car to seek other peoples approval and now that it hasnt happened your mad?

if you bought the car because you like the color and feel comfortable with it then none of this would bother you because the most important part is You like the color, and who cares what others think if they dont.

I'm tired of the negativity about the color on this thread. I said as much in my first post on this topic. Where does it say I bought the car seeking anyone else's approval? Again, I just state that I like my Yaris! I'm just wondering why the vehement disapproval from some, and about the negative comments of others.

It's not negativity. We're just voicing our opinions. All in all.. it's only a car forum. Chill. And you telling someone to fuck themselves is way more out of line than someone saying the yellow looks like pee.

^ This. It's not so much that the real color is bad, it's just that it's nowhere near as cool looking as the advertised color. But in my opinion, even the real yellow is better than a couple of the other available options.

unless you live outside the US... in which historically pink may actually be a feminine color.... such as in Japan.

lol still, you need to imagine everyone seeing the amazing color of the ads, and getting psyched about it, and then when the real thing came out, it was massively dissapointed. If you wanna get mad at someone, get mad at Toyota for horrible misrepresenting the color.

We know that Toyota has a yellow color that actually looks like that advertised yellow due to the existence of the yellow used on Lexus cars like the one shown below...
