I was watching a replay of yesterday's "Attack of the Show"(G4), and they were making fun of the "Black Gold" Datsun. While the commercial is pretty cheesy(and very 80's), I can't help but think it would make a cool repaint. Better yet, wouldnt' it be a great lucky draw? :P

The commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWF-hH1nloo

Seriously though, I kinda like the color. What does everyone else think?

That car with that color looks like something you would find in the dump. :P

Interesting paint scheme for a so so looking car. That might give the customizer guys something to think about.

I'd have to go back by and check... but I honestly, think I saw one of these for sale yesterday driving through Louisville. If not, it was certainly a cousin.

Hmm, I wonder how much these "limited edition" cars go for 27 years later. Maybe I'll E-Bay it up or something sometime.
