Does Mary Kay still hand out pink Cadillacs to top salesladies?

The last time I was getting the SRX serviced, there was a Mary Kay XLR in front of me. I bet that's a fairly rare car.

I don't like this shade of Pink, a more darker would of been better like the one on the iPod nano.

Yes, all the top saleswomen get Cadillacs, though the pink is much more toned down than it used to be it looks like the pearlesent white with just a touch of pink in it. The color is actually a real GM color with an RPO code. I believe that when change Cadillacs every other year or so, the old Mary Kay cars are repainted "normal" colors again, because I have never seen a used one turn up anywhere.

The is a Mary Kay rep down here that has a pink $66,000 STS4 with adaptive cruise.
