Australian artist Ken Done painted an E30 M3 Group A racer with bright yellow, pink and blue motifs inspired by his homeland - parrot fish and parrots of the Great Barrier Reef and the Australian bush. Done wanted the car to look fast and happy. It is one of two Australian-artist Art Cars unveiled in 1989.
