V6, Manual 5 speed with IUP and ICAP (Red Leather).....I challenge you to find one on a lot in any exterior color......Oh and add side airbags, wheel locks, active anti-theft and spoiler. Supposed to be built today!

Anyone else have this combo?....In V6 of course, I know there are a couple (Many) of GTs with this combo. Redfire exterior for ours in case you were wondering.

This IS a rare combo......for a V6. Most V6's, and this in in general terms, do not have IUP AND ICAP.

Anyone?????????
I've got a fully loaded Torch Red V6 Coupe.

It seems that the V6 cars on the lots here never have IUP. I ordered my car and got the options that I wanted an IUP was top of the list. I also have the upgraded alarm, traction controll/antilock brakes, Premimum car. The my color dash is nice, but I really like the dash, the AC vents, the shifter, door opening moldings, leather steering wheel, extra gages, message center, enough that I would have bought the package even if it did not have my color. I do enjoy showing it to people though....the more I look at it, that package is a great deal.

I thought ford stopped producing mycolor and the aluminum dash (airbag reasons?). I know I am wrong because I can see that convertible with the aluminum dash, but what about MyColor? I remember that lawsuit too.

Production of MyColor never stopped. It was slowed due to re-tooling to increase production capacity. The lawsuit was supposedly settled out of court.

The lack of IUP,manual tranny and the rare sonic blue color combo on my dealers lot forced me to order mine.

I agree with you 05mach1

Thanks that's why I see how many Soinc blue owners we got on TMS.

Hey that my car also with the redfire ext. When did you order yours? Mine was ordered March 15th. Your right this is a rare combo. When I ordered mine, the dealer did a nationwide search...none anywhere.

I'm always pleasantly surprised to see the IUP in cars on lots. For a while it was scary. There was either no IUP or that neutered IUP, which only included the steering wheel and shifter. They seemed to be prevalent for a while.

I got IUP in my Legend Lime. It's rare enough for me. A year from now, when there are a billion black and redfire 'Stangs out there, mine will still stand out!

I got it in my GT cause i ordered it in May 04', but all the newer GT's I see I don't see the full package. The only one's I've seen the full package in were the early GT's that I saw B-4 I got mine. I like to think I got something rare.

I just got the same car as you with no side airbags

I got the same except for the red leather. I think Red Fire might be one of the more common colors along with black. So as far as rarity, probably not. I pulled up in a parking lot next to my car's twin. Except his was an auto.

I thought Legend Lime was supposed to be replaced by Lime Gold in 2006. Is this not the case?

If I was in Pitt, it could've been mine Supposedly, my salesman ordered the same car as mine for his wife, but I haven't seen another Redfire GT yet. A couple V6's, but no GT's.
