Characteristics
Pink Gold Peach happens to look exactly like Princess Peach as far as shape goes. Her dress can be made out, along with her elegant gloves, skirt, and brooch. She also has the same hairstyle as Peach, with bangs and a ponytail-- her crown and earrings, too. The only trait that separates Pink Gold Peach from the original is she's composed completely of pink gold.
Pink Gold Peach also has a special biker suit when driving Bikes. She has the identical features of Princess Peach when she is also changed into her suit, and has racing boots and gloves, along with the suit.
