The mods need to lock this thread before it spirals farther out of control.

As for your original concerns, there has never been a beter built Mustang then the very first ones that have come into the dealer. If you are worried about it, go see one yourself or wait untill owners here list complaints otherwise; just like you would with any questions on any other product you can possibly buy anywhere on the planet. End of thread.

Well said...and fair enough.

Robert

I agree - if it's not possible to have a fair and balanced dialogue here, then it's better that the mods lock this thread.

Paris MkVI

All I can say is -

I do not agree with everything or everyone in this thread, but I respect their right to state their thoughts.

If we don't like it, we can click right out of the thread and move on.

Haha I drive a 98 GSR, kid. I'm 6'4'' 187 pounds and if I can fit in it perfectly then you most certaintly can unless you're not smart enough to push the seat back. This isn't a debate against Japanese cars vs. American cars it's about the Mustang's interior quality. So what I drive a Japanese car, that's completely irrelevant. You guys are the kind that still think that pink and purple are for girls. You really need to calm down all I did was question the interior quality of a car that you cannot afford. You all are blowing this out of proportion like I came on here selling sex tapes of your parents. Next time you place American cars over Japanese cars look at the sales figures and see who's on top. Yup Toyota is kids and I'm not saying that cuz I favor Japanese cars more it's because I love cars in general and I don't have a problem admitting that another nation makes them better. Well I don't wanna make this to long because I know you guys have middle school in the morning so good night.

LOL you guys are great! I live for these type of threads. Anyway to answer your question Kamikaze. I seen both today in person. One GT with IUP and one without. IUP certainly makes a big difference. Without it does look cheaper looking. Wouldn't stop me from buying one or nothing but I will be ordering mine with IUP. Whether it is actually cheaper or not is up to the experts. All I know is that appearance-wise, the IUP adds a ton.

Gotta see that in person. B)

Let this thread be an example to those who may not have a lot of experience with Internet forums.

This guy made it obvious he was nothing but a troll from the get go, some of you all had a problem with my post calling him on it.

There are people who get a rise out of creating chaos. He's one of them.

If you don't feed them, they go away.

The reason I'm on this board is because of this same lunacy on Stangnet, lets not let that happen here.

Kamikaze

I'm not a troll I had a legitimate question that I wanted answered but school seems to be on vacation cuz all you kids ran in here with your feelings hurt ruining the thread. I've been here too long to be a troll check all my post little man.

iwantastang

I'm with you on that one Sixtysix. There was really no reason for this thread to get so out of hand like it did. I don't think ive ever seen a thread get out of hand quite like this one did, on either this forum or on my 3 other Protege forums that i frequent. This is really unbelieveable - a group of grown adults that can't carry on a legitimate conversation about a common topic. :bang: :notnice:

Robert

Mods, please close this thread NOW!

bigred0383

I have been a member of Stangnet for a year, and this is exactly the reason I left there to come here. Well, that and Brad's second to none information on virtually every mustang ever made. I agree, please lock this one down.

Stinky Old Fart

As for interior quailty, the Mustang w/wo the IUP certainly has some weaknesses. The seats are dead flat with no side bolstering to speak of. One of the seat fabrics with the word "MUSTANG" repeated is very dated. The parking brake handle is perfect for E-brake turns but very large. The 12V port/cigarette lighter is in a bad spot (it might be located OK for a radar detector power cord). The red floor mats sold with the red leather interior should be charcoal. The console should have more storage space. There should be four cup holders. The door mounted speakers will get foot bashed and don't have the tweeters in line with the occupants ears. Matching speaker chrome bezel rings like those around the instruments are needed. For safety, the front seat belt shoulder guide should be attached to the seat, not the B pillar. This will force the seat designers to make the recline machanism crashworthy.

Regarding the 'vert, it will likely still have manual latching, even the Mini 'vert did away with the manual latches. The Mini 'vert rear seats fold down to permit a pass through and are lockable, I doubt the Mustang 'vert will be as useful. A built in roll bar like the PT Cruiser would be nice.

I'm done picking out the fly specks from the pepper. I say the interior is a nine out of ten. I'm lovin' it.

They have learned to lay down for it, thats for sure. I would love to spend a little 'lift time' with you under one to show you what you are really buying. Its execution vs substance. In the truck/suv world, its laughable. [/b][/quote]
sad thing is that Japanese owners dont understand is
you CAN NOT tell them anything bad about imports.. apparently jesus works on the assembly line next to all the robots (way to employ people! yay)

structure wise Japanese cars are GARBAGE
i remember when my girl was getting her mustang she had a lancer rental.. and i tapped my friends montero with it at 1 mph
i NEVER seen that m uch damage on a car!

HOLY crap!

crush half the front end in ( thank god for insurance), destroyed a head light and bumper, hood, everything
AT 1MPH in the driveway!

most people have no CLUE what quality Japanese cars are.. looks at scions) but 99% of them buy them blindly cuz everyone overlooks problems with Japanese cars.. Japanese car can have a million problems..and a Japanese owner will say its nothing.... the second a ford gets a flat its a Piece of Ship =p
