new daily driver, it's PINK

soooooo....  i really needed to find another car (you can only do so much with a family of 5 and 2 cougars), so i went out to the wholesale lot at work and found this...........


it's a 1996 Cadillac DeVille, and it's PINK!!!  it's a mary kay car and only has 61,900 miles on it..... it looks like it was garage kept and the interior looks new.....  i don't think she ever used the trunk because the spare cover still smells new :) 

now i know it's pink, but the wife LOVES it, and i only paid $2,100 for it..... the only issues i could find with it was the torque struts were worn ($35) and the passenger front speaker is blown..... otherwise it looks and drives brand new :)

i guess i can deal with it being pink for a deal like this







OOOH!!!  I'm a Eco Hypermiler :burnout: Not bad for 79mph on the interstate 2hours a day

great to see you got a USA made car!
remember it easier to fix them, than to find them after they been crushed.

That is actually something I would never have thought of! Definitely though. Hell a lot of people will probably see that and think he painted it for that!

There's one up here I see now and then on the road.  Caddies are accepted as pink cars.  Enjoy the new ride, I know I would.  (and $2100, that's a deal)

the tags on the cougar are due in april.... i figured i'd swap them with the caddy's and get the florida breast cancer plate (tina's mom died of melanoma 23 years ago)... i think it would look cool :)

Nice Deville, it's probably rare too, I'd say they didn't make many Mary Kay cars.

Nice ride. Just don't get involved in any road rage incidents now. It's really hard to look like a bad a$$ when you're jumping out of a pink car.
