OK here goes the next thread (hi jon!):
...

gimme your answers and I'll read'em all.


You missed some!

The Purple Prowler from the Rave era! That's my favorite, one awesome super funky car! Totally fits Prince!

Other favorite...the "No body like yo' body" white Rolls Royce from Parade!

And of course the White Rad Ride White '67 Thunderbird his dad gave him (I think)!

And the front end grill of the blueish/greenish Cadillac from the Sign O The Times cover.

Cool topic but could be more creative and precise with the topic title.

A friend of mine said she saw Prince almost get hit by another car in that Prowler during the Celebration. I guess he started to pull out but since there were cars all over the place he couldn't see, he punched it just in time, and was about 3 feet away from a big truck when he pulled out. I guess she even saw expressions on Prince and Mani's face. Mani was freaked, Prince was laughing.

Ya'll forgot to mention his Gold Mustang. That's definately one of my favorite cars that he has owned. However, I am really diggin' that Prowler.

As for what he does with the cars. I was told, he keeps them all. They are parked in the underground parking lot of Paisley Park.

C.

P.S. Did anyone see that SUV that pulled in while everyone was in line on I believe the 7th day? Prince was in the back seat. The windows were tinted, but the light shined in at one point and I could see him sitting there, looking around. Ha Ha

Hey V, was that older purple car a BMW? Prince had given his father a Purple BMW back in the 80s. That's when his father in turn gave him the '67 T-Bird.

I love the yellow bmw 850i because I have a charcoal grey 850i and the first song I played in my cd player was Gansta Glam and I blasted it down the street.

Yeah! The Gold Mustang. I'm not a big fan of those cars but it was cool.

I remember seeing that one night when Prince was filming a video at Glam Slam West. During the Gold Experience. The windows were really dark in tint.

Somebody is going to be killed one of these days on that highway in front of Paisley Park. Municipal officials in Chanhassen should change the speed limits on that road to make it a street instead of a highway.

Chanhassen is no longer a rural suburb. It's turning into a densely populated city. Having cars zooming past at top speeds and drivers having to floor the accelerator to merge into traffic is crazy and dangerous.

No the car was not a BMW that I saw go into Paisley Park. Interesting cause it was something like a Nova or something box-like .

I prefer the motorbikes, especially the purple one. I like motorbikes more than cars so that's not a hard choice. The purple bike is a beautiful custom bike with a rare color, it's unique. I've always liked that one.

If Prince ever decides to get rid of that bike (or the black one), he can give it to me. I need a new motorbike because mine is getting old and worn out. I know I should be able to handle it; I think I'm about as tall as he is (maybe a few centimeters taller) and I'm sure it wouldn't weigh much more than my bike does.

Hey, somebody email me and tell me what kind of bike that is from Graffiti Bridge. I want one.

I think the prowler is kinda dorky looking. Doesn't suit him at all. The convertible from Parade was neat.

I dunno. Something about a miniature rock star speeding around fucking Minnesota in a gazillion dollar car just doesn't speak to me.
