Attack of the Yellow Mustangs

I was in Myrtle Beach this weekend and saw a big ass group of all yellow mustangs. Old ones to current ones WTF Anyone know about this and why? I didnt see the point because all 15 to 20 mustangs were yellow and they all seem to look alike.

I own one, and even I find it a bit weird to have a 1 colour Mustang club. Maybe when there's so many of them around, you have to do everything possible to differentiate yourself from all of the other owners.

I know when Mustang guys get together around here, on a good night, they'll fill up 3 or 4 parking lots...

Nope, not really.

A group of yellow TLs would give me a laugh. I think just 1 or 2 would do the trick.

Misery loves company?

Actually, I wouldn't mind owning a yellow '69-70 Boss 302, yellow '69-'73 Mach 1 with black striping, or yellow '71 Boss 351.

I always enjoy the irony of people trying to make their mass produced car look differently from the next guy's mass produced car.

I guess that's why Pep Boys and AutoZone are in business.

I wonder if anybody says: What are ya... yellow?

I dunno, maybe because not many vehicles are offered in yellow and there are enough of these guys to form a registry and plan a meet. I'd like to but I know we're a buncha nut cases on here that if there were enough Acuras in Mayan Bronze (one of my fav colors), for example, I'd may even meet up ... and I don't even own one ... yet

Doesnt surprise me to see a one car color club. On local car forums you see meets that try to exclude others so that the ppl that go or are involved can feel more special about themselves like they are unique. Like " 90's rwd japanese cars under 2500 lb only" meets etc.

ya know, its not all about looks.
they could be talking about lots of different things other than looks.
Also, there's a little bit of comradery in having the same car, same color.
Why do we have special color clubs on acurazine? and we do have it...."join the SSM club" etc.

my point is that it feels good to be in a group, whether it be an All car club or a specific color club. Each one of those yellow mustangs feels that they bring something to the table. At the end of the day, they're all human beings and want to feel appreciated, and gawked and geeked at. Just like you and I.

That being said--I haven't seen a "Bumble Bee" since the transformer movies came out. Were they just for the movie?
