A SUZUKI Sidekick has been decorated to look like a Barbie car with decals and a spare tire cover – and it sold for a high price.
The X, formerly Twitter, thread had everyone Thinking Pink.
A user (@diyfieri) excitedly posted photos of a 1992 Suzuki Sidekick for sale in Chantilly, Virginia that had an incredibly unique paint job that complements the recent box office hit, Barbie.
It had been painted to fit a Barbie theme with a pink paint job, and pink wheels with grey and turquoise decals that went from the end of the wheel well across the doors and over the rear wheel wells.
Pink and teal Palm tree and hibiscus flower decals tastefully dotted the exterior, and the spare tire was covered with a flamingo cover.
The interior was also decorated appropriately with a pink steering wheel, pink accents on the door and dashboard, and accents on the center console.
What made car enthusiasts turn their heads was the fact that the little-car-that-could only had 21,000 miles on the odometer.
It had an automatic transmission, which was an unpopular choice for the make and model of the time, but it added value to the fact that anyone could drive it home.
The only thing that made people wince was the price tag, which was set to $7,995.
Other users on the thread were in awe of the creativity that went into making the Sidekick a 1990s kid’s dream come true.
“I saw this on Facebook Marketplace today and I dropped my phone in awe,” one user wrote, collecting 636 likes.
“This is a masterpiece.”
The user who started the thread replied with a similar reaction.
“It’s so sick, someone posted it in one of the Tracker groups I’m in and I audibly went, ‘Oh, Hell yeah,'” they responded.
Another user wrote that their desire for the car went beyond socially normal limits.
“Price, price, price? I need this more than my unborn child needs a house to grow up in,” their comment read.
The original poster replied with a link to the original post, as well as some commentary.
“Like $8,000, which is definitely a bit more than it’s worth,” they said.
Someone else wrote that $8,000 for the decorations and low mileage was a fair price, to which the poster responded quickly.
“Nah, not for an automatic, I paid like half that for mine.”
