Mascot/animal for BRZ. *Off topic*
 
If you were to choose a "car mascot"/animal theme/ whatever for a white BRZ between these four five animals, which would you choose?

As random and lame as it seems, there is a point to this.

Arctic Hare: fast on land, small agile... makes sense

http://www.encyclopediaofukraine.com...re%20white.jpg

Arctic Fox: Slower than the hare but still, small and agile

http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/...20120723205201


White Wolf: Awesome critter. Might be more fitting for a different car though being larger and faster than the fox and basically the same speed as the hare
http://www.whitewolfsanctuary.com/ph...76_Ventana.jpg

White Owl: Very cool. Fastest which when considered should bar it but still.

Mink: Suggested by Go_a_way1

Honestly I would go with the marten, they are lone animals in a big world that are quick and agile.... much like the BRZ? haha

Fair point. Unfortunately a requirement here is white.

I do like your justification though lol :thumbsup:

Nice!! haha you can add a poll still under thread options on the top of the original post on the right side

Leonardo 03-16-2016 03:40 PM

I love dogs, so I was leaning towards the fox or the wolf, but then saw the Mink. LOL Now I am not sure...

That one picture of the mink sums up the feeling you get every time you drive your car does it not?

Guff 03-16-2016 03:43 PM

Definitely a Mink.

Leonardo 03-16-2016 03:43 PM

Though if I do go through with coming up with a decal for a mink ouutline Ill be asked why I have a rodent on my car lol


(I know it's not a rodent at all but people... well... you know how it is)

In a decal/outline kind of format a more distinguishable animal might help me here. Based on the pictures provided I very much agree with you. I should have used a less swaying picture as well lol

There might also need to be a stuffed animal involved.

Oh one other thing I cant help but take into consideration is that I once read an article about a pet weasel sneaking into a infants room and eating 8 of its fingers off... I just cant quite get that out of my mind.

Tcoat 03-16-2016 03:55 PM

Depend on who you talk to on here. I like the hare but many will tell you the albino sloth is the only real choice.

Well somebody had to say it!
I would do the hare since most of the other options will probably just confuse the hell out of people.

Yeah I agree with @Tcoat on this as most people have no idea what a mink is

I was thinking Jack Russel Terrier, but that Mink picture really hit a bullseye. Sheep is right; that is the look I get when I drive the car.

themadscientist 03-16-2016 06:23 PM

And much like our cars, even though they are cute, Minks like to fight.

Twin versus Mustang on a twisty road.

OP I think this is settled

Does the mink win yet? lol

Oh yeah OP has to go with mink now and he has me to thank for it!! hahaha totally random ass animal but it fits way to well

KevinK121 03-16-2016 06:40 PM

You broke the game :p

Though, I can't argue with any of it lol.

Lol yeah thats kinda what I do around here :bellyroll: Honestly though I love the idea of "The white mink BRZ" tearing it up.

Choco 03-16-2016 06:48 PM

I voted mink without looking at the thread first. lol

KevinK121 03-16-2016 06:49 PM

So part the idea of deciding this was to have a decal made for the big spot of trim on the passenger side dash.

I had wrapped it all in 3m 1080 satin white pearl (looks excellent btw) and wanted to do something with it.

If I can come up with a good design I'll do it. I wish the winning pic here was more lateral than verticle. The owl would have filled it up easily/nicely.

Poll is still open to anyone who wants to participate but the people seem to have have spoken lol

themadscientist 03-16-2016 06:51 PM

Gonna look for a plush mink to to throw in the back window. It's settled for me.

Get the pic of the mink that is all over this thread as a decal and put it on your dash. That would fit perfectly. :lol:

Do it in Japanese writing (this is just white mink from google translate)
白いミンク

themadscientist 03-16-2016 06:55 PM

I don't have time to draw it and it would suck if I did. I'll try to describe it.

White mink. Just the top part, from the shoulder up, head erect like he's standing up, front 3/4 angle so he's looking a little towards the viewer. One paw up with a driving glove on fist clenched. He should have a sneer with one fang out. Caption "Who you callin cute?"
