Angry Pin Stripes!

Why are dealerships messing up our cars by putting pinstripes on them? it completely ruins the car! it isn't a family sedan!

yeah good call. anything to jack up the price of the car! i said give it to me as it is right off the truck (back when they couldn't keep up with the demand and my dealership didn't have any on the lot). they put their logo on it after they took all the plastic off! i said "if you're not paying me to advertise your dealership, take it off!"

I guess the topic surrounding pinstripes is a love/hate relationship for some tC owners. I think pinstripes look rather nice if you have a burgandy tC. just my opinion? ha

what color pin stripe with the black cherry? i see red and white combo stripe on the black sand pearl and it just ruins the car. especially with the glitter look to the paint. a glitter pin stripe would just be ridiculous tho!
