I can't wait for my pink pig, or is it a lavender lolly? 🤔Â

As I remember, the Vatican cars have been black. Does anyone know the reason the 355 B version is different color?

@ed-davis, that's the color of the car in the Vatican. Most but not all Vatican-owned vehicles are black. Some are white and other colors. The current Pope likes to ride in a Ford escort when he's not driving his Lamborghini or Ferrari! (click here). Most Vatican cars are made exclusively for the Pope and are gifted by the manufacturer.Â
