    Brand Spankin' new California Special!

    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...

    Brand Spankin' new California Special!

    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!

    Brand Spankin' new California Special!

    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.

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

    Brand Spankin' new California Special!

    Here are a couple interior pics... 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...

    Brand Spankin' new California Special!

    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...

    Getting an '08 Looking for MUST-HAVES

    I would probably go XM, since it's what I have on my DirecTV system if I were to go satelite radio. I don't really listen to the radio unless I'm looking for new music or trafic/weather. Most of my music is on the iPod ;).

    Why Shelby? Building an argument for the Mrs.

    :rlaugh: not quite!:rlaugh: Yes it is a cosmetics related company, but it is Candy Apple Red! The graphics are extremely subtle, and are located on the lower panel of the door where you would normally see the GT500 graphics. I threatened to buy some magnetic strips to cover the logo when I...

    Why Shelby? Building an argument for the Mrs.

    Thanks for the input. Unfortunately, I don't think we have a choice as to where we get the car. It needs to be special ordered due to the custom paint required. FYI, the custom paint involves an embossing or etching of some sort of the company logo right where the GT500 logo would go. I've...

    Why Shelby? Building an argument for the Mrs.

    Hi Folks, Mad props to the stangnet forum:hail2: . I've been getting a lot of support here:nice: . Here's the deal. We ARE going to get a Mustang GT convertible Premium minimum. She is CREDITED about 30K for the purchase through her company which pretty much gets us a Mustang GT Deluxe...

    Getting an '08 Looking for MUST-HAVES

    FYI, I am a little worried about crash safety for the vert. I have an '03 BMW 330CI vert right now, and it has stability control as well as hidden roll bars that shoot out of the rear headrests in the event of a rollover. Two safety features that the Ford will probably never have.

    Getting an '08 Looking for MUST-HAVES

    IUP definnatly. I aven't talked to the wife yet about Shelby or CS. Since this will be her car, and we are getting a 30K credit from her company, what's another 17K right? My fear is that she will think the Shelby is to aggressive in appearance. I may need to start a new thread, and get some...

    Getting an '08 Looking for MUST-HAVES

    Thoughts on the "Shaker 1000 Audio System"? Likely I will swap out the head unit for a Pioneer AVIC D3 or similar unit, but is the "Shaker 1000 Audio System" option worth it for the speakers only? Since it is a 10 speaker system I'm not up to replacing them all after market. I can easily ebay...

    Wow, I was just reading on the glass top roof. I think that is a great compromise to a convertible. Anyone know the official availability of this model?

    I'm really interested in getting Sync. Anyone know if it is out yet? I need to do some hunting around.

    Getting an '08 Looking for MUST-HAVES

    Yeah, I was thinking about the CS as a compromise to the Shelby :). I know the difference between the HID and standard as well. My current daily driver is an '03 BMW 330CIC with HIDs. When I drive my wife's car at night, I feel blind in comparison.

    Thanks for the input. Yeah, I noticed the sig is too big. Trying to use the forum tools, but I can't seem to resize it. I may try some HTML or just drop the graphic size down manually.

    Getting an '08 Looking for MUST-HAVES

    Yeah, the one I test drove had that package, and I liked it quite a bit. We want to go with the duo-tone black/chamois interior colors too. I like the looks of the front-end of the Shelby, but I don't know if you can get that front end without paying for a Shelby. If I can get the wife to...

    Getting an '08 Looking for MUST-HAVES

    Hi All, This is my first post here, and am new to the forum, but not to the Mustang community. I used to own a '95. My wife and I will be picking out options for a new '08 GT Convertible soon. It will be a custom paint similar to candy apple, but not quite. My question is, since I'm not...
