Default why would a ford dearlership do this!

So yesterday i go to my local ford to see a used truck and decide to check out the new stangs and lone behold a single black bullitt sitting in the middle of all of them. Car looks awesome until i see its been branded.

Considering it's a GT with just a CAI and gears, why not?

*throws on flamesuit*

jk jk jk

Dealerships brand anything. I've seen branded C6 Z06's and AMG SL's

Free advertising.

My Mustang was brand new and also had a dealership decal on the trunk lid, but it peeled off very easily.

I agree in principle that it's wrong to do that, but that's why they do it, and it's not hard to un-do.

Most new vehicles also come with a dealership-branded license plate frame which comes off just as easily.

i took my dealership badge off right in their parking lot and handed it to the salesman who sold me the car. he wasnt to upset. i told him id put it back on for a 1000 dollar a month fee for advertising their dealership, but he laughed.

You could always do what I did sometime ago, I asked the dealer give me discount of $20 per month/per loan term for the free advertisement.....of course, they removed it in about 10 min....[8D]. No issued with the stang, they asked me if I mind having the sticker and I said yes, so it was gone...
