If your going to drop 20k plus on a car you might as well get all the bells and whistles

Anyways... On the current Mustangs the IUP is only $345.00 I can't imagine it costs much more on the new Mustang. Same upgrade with an addition of the MyColor.

Yeah, but the IUP includes the techno Message Disply, so that IS more than $345 I bet... closer to $750 I think.

What colour IS the plain gauge by the way?
Is it all green?
or are the gauges white? (like what the IUP has without the lights on)
Actually, my understanding is that the gauges light up all the time, regardless of whether or not the exterior lights are turned on.

I've seen tons of engine pics w/o the cover, but only a few with it. Wonder which way it's gonna be.

They decided to go w/o the cover to cut the cost.....not too big of sacrifice

Yeah the gauges are on all the time..however with the mycolour display....they are white when no lights are on....
and turn your 'set' colour when the lights are on.

So if the regular NON IUp package has green gauges all the time...assuming green ALL the time (lights on or off)
not white/green.

Confused yet

I was going to say $600... I'm guessing it won't pass the $800 mark. We need pricing!

Actually you guys are predicting less for IUP than I was thinking, so cool. I asked that question (about pricing) one time and no one would speculate so its cool to see some predictions. I ordered with IUP and just noticed the steering wheel looks alot cooler on the one with.

Oh yeah! I hadn't noticed the steering wheel looking different, good observation. Now I'm even more glad I ordered the IUP.

The upgraded steering wheel will be well worth it. It is absolutely beautiful ! You will be glad you got it.

I think the only goofy thing left to want with the IUP is some volume and radio station buttons on the steering wheel. If you've had them on a car before, you know they're the next best thing to sliced bread (no looking down, no fumbling).

By the way, the radio has changed in size completely. I guess this means nicer displays from Sony or Panasonic are out of the question, as they are all the typical deck/receiver size as in the 99-04 generation. Hmph.

Lynx, all prices here are speculation, so no worries- perhaps it'll be right in your price range

I'm going aftermarket for the actual deck... Hopefully the Shaker1000 system gives me the speakers to rumble. But the stock deck looks HORRID :bang: ! There are some slick fold down decks that will fill up most the space created by a small sized deck.

As a price guessamite I would put the IUP at $895-1195 MSRP. I think that would be reasonable for what is included. Whatever the cost, even if it was more we would have ordered it.
