    So my wife put in her hard work on her Beauti Control business, and it paid off. BIGTIME. We picked this baby up yesterday. I would have posted the pics then, but I had my priorities, as we were out crusing :D . The car is free -taxes and -extras. Not a lease, but an honest and true bonefied gift. Basically we get a GT coupe free, and anything more is extra. Well, I don't know if you can REALLY say it was free. She did work really hard for it. We decided to spend about 9k more, and get the California Special ( GT CS ) and make it somewhat a modern classic. No, they wouldn't allow us to get the Shelby :nonono: , but its tough to complain...

    So, those of you that were concerned about the badging, rest your eyes on those pics. I am not ashamed to drive this car AT ALL, and I don't feel like any less of a man :nice: . Matter of fact, my wife has turned me into somewhat of a hata, as I would trade my '03 BMW 330ci convertible for this any day.

    I love this two-tone combo. We got pretty much all the options accept NAV :nice: . Since they didn't offer the Sync, I felt it hard to spend $2k on something with limited capabilities, when the Pioneer Z2 with backup camera, and bluetooth is far under that price.

    Yes, it has all the badging. It is tough to see on red.

    Actually that's the Beauti Control badging. Your right though, I would not buy a car from a dealer that did that to me. It drives me crazy when I see new cars with dealer badging. Unless he is giving me like $1k off the price only to do that.

    That is one of the things I'm pretty impressed with at her company. It goes with the car quite nicely. Even the older model Mustangs they badged were pretty decent. And the car isn't an ugly pink!

    Your's looks just like my 07 red fire GT/CS, they are cool cars, but free makes them better yet.

    Sure, check out www.ATime4u.com. It's a home based business from a company called Beauti Control based in Texas. They've been in business for about 27 years. It's well respected. My wife has about 4 1/2 years under the belt, but men or women have been known to achieve their Mustang in as little as a year and a half. She chose to build her team slow and strong, and be prepared for the slow moths.
