I was looking at the red interior inserts.



Notice picture number two, no red insert.



This is the key shot. Watch it again. The trim panel going back to his left. Shot from the front and right. Totally inconsistent with the shot from Ford. Again -- (repeats) . . . back and to the left. (he repeats it like a mantra) . . . back and to the left . . . back and to the left.

we've been discussing this some time ago. those are rendered images, computer-generated. the red insert will not be on the production version (unfortunately. it'd look good imo)

I read in one of the interviews with the Guy in charge of the Design of the Interiors, that Color inserts were originaly intented and will probably show up some time soon. It's Kinda funny, the guy actually used to work for Hasbro/Kenner Toys designing toys, Star Wars Figures, which I also Collect. As well as other toys

Just an opinion, but I think all of the other optional interior colors should have been offered like the red option. With the IUP and the other interior colors, you end up with three colors on the dash. The dash needs to be all dark charcoal, particularly with the IUP. It would probably have even been cheaper for Ford to offer the various interior colors like the red color. Anyone else agree ?

I'm not sure what point you'tr trying to make. When did anyone care about the back seat in a Mustang?

I agree with you 100% It would have been much cheaper for FORD to make an all Dark Charcoal Enviroment Dash, Doors, Trim etc. If they did it that way they would only need to change Seats, Door/Quarter Trim Inserts, and Headliner/Carpet or even just Mats, as with the Red Color Package. It would LOOK SWEET TOO! Like the Photoshops we saw when we first got pic's of the interior. This one was my FAVORITE! .

Also one thing about these "Chops" is that only the inserts of the Seats are Color Keyed, and not the Whole Seat, so it would reduce costs on the seat covers too. 75% of the Seat would be Dark Charcoal.

Not to mention that it looks Beter, in my opinion, More Upscale.

Of Course if you order all Dark Charcoal then you could take your stang to an upholstery shop and have this done by replacing the inserts in the Doors and Seats. Who knows, maybe the aftermarket will step up and offer Leather Replacement Covers, so you could just order the IUP and Charcoal Cloth and then Add the Leather you want.

I really hope ford offers these interiors on the 06 mustang because they REALLY look a lot better than the standard or the all red interior. not to mention they are cheaper!

I think the red interior will get old after a while, and hopefully not turn pink. :angry:

I bought a sunshade to protect the leather in my car. Unfortunately, "my car" is the 2005 Mustang, which I am not yet in possession of (this means I'm crazy and already buying things for it). B)

I absolutely love those black seats with 'x colour' insert.

The black with silver/gray inserts is just crazy looking...love it.

Some people do not like a dark interior environment so they would have to make gray and tan options. What they should have done was do what they are doing now with the colour accent package, but only make it for the inserts and offer blue, red, and gray, instead of just red, but that may be too many possibilites for a 25000 car.

Looks a lot like my wife's SVT Focus (blue). I love her interior. (hmm, that doesn't sound right and yet....)

Yes I would have to agree but I really believe the shot was photoshopped from the book depository.

Ok, I'm just curious. How 'bout some of those inserted of red seats on the other two, grey and tan?

I just really would like to see those. Maybe this oughtta be in the photochop area, though..
