Cheep Cheep
Scanning around Drive.com.au to keep up with some used car values and saw a canary yellow 8 for sale for $18,000!!! 
Is in Melbourne, 2003 model with 10,200 on the clock and assorted extras like body kit, etc. Number plate ADICTV.
Didn't look damaged in the photos - maybe they're "old shots"
Anyone know the car - sounds an outrageous bargain to me.
And no, I'm not the seller!!

A (much older) mate of mine has a bright yellow convertible Ferrari 348, which he reckons he cannot sell due to the poor re-sale. I've suggested he take it up to Qld or take his punishment like a man and buy a different colour next time. :D
And no, he doesn't let mere mortals like me drive it.
I think his insurance is void if anyone under 50 drives it.
No offence to the owners of yellow 8s here. It is a running joke with my mate that is obviously repeated on this forum at the expense of guys like Timbo.

Can't see why Nordic Green has survived. White, even yellow :p , are better colours.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but only yellow excites me. 
I have to say that I always get comments from people about my car, albeit they are blind guys that are just happy to see anything......
Well I have no regrets about yellow at all, I figure that the bling will appeal to the punchbowl crowd or some old guy attempting to regain his youth, either way I would rather stand out than blend in.
Bring it on.
