Celebrate International Barbie Day with these pink occasions

No, International Barbie Day has nothing to do with Samantha de Jong from Oh Oh Cherso! Today we “celebrate” that Barbie – the doll – turned 61 years old. And we give her a range of pink occasions to choose from.

The Fiat 500 once shipped in Barbie pink, and so did the Nissan Micra C+C, but we’ll ignore that. A birthday present should of course also be a bit of fun.

Porsche 911 GTS – 267,212 euros

An event from 2023? Yes, this Porsche 911 GTS is for sale in the Porsche Center Leusden and has almost 3000 kilometers on the clock. It is painted in a legendary color: Rubystone Red.

The hue debuted on the 1991 964 RS and is somewhere between pink and purple. Porsche now calls the color Ruby Star Neo and charges a surcharge of 2865 euros for it.

Alpine A110 – €83,174

Rose Bruyère is the name of the color of this Alpine A110. It belongs to a special version of the French sports car, the South Beach Colorway. By the way, strictly speaking, the car is not a used car, because there are only 25 kilometers on the counter.

The A110 South Beach Colorway also came in another colourway, Blue Azur. White alloy wheels are always standard on the Limited Edition.

Abarth 595 – 24,900 euros

This cheerful Fiat 500 isn’t a Fiat 500. The scorpion logo on the nose tells you we’re dealing with an Abarth 595. Otherwise, the deeper front spoiler and dual exhaust systems do the trick.

By the way, it’s great to see how timeless the design of the 500 is. The compact Fiat was launched sixteen years ago and still doesn’t look outdated.

Ford Fairlane – 9950 euros

This Ford Fairlane was built when Barbie was one year old. The large American sedan dates from 1960 and comes in a wonderfully distinctive sixties colour: light pink with a white roof.

Nowadays all cars have a black or gray interior, but in the past manufacturers sometimes used some color. The pink of the exterior is simply reflected on the dashboard of this Ford.
