I just wanna know whats the big deal about the IUP packages? Who cares? Don't wait 3-6 + months to get your car just because of some lame upgrade gimmick package. Can someone post pics of the IUP and non-IUP interiors please. So people can see its no big deal.

IUP is like the lame prize you get in the cereal box. The cereal taste just as good without it.

I like the car without IUP, but will miss the extra two center gauges, will have to settle for dummy light instead.......

I got the premium, non IUP, and it's great. I've gotten used to the lack of gadgets that I missed at first: outside temp, compass, mpg, range, all that stuff. I do wish I had oil pressure and charge gauges, though.

When I started looking into this car, I wanted IUP. Local dealer had one without it, and guess what, no looking back. I love it.

Atleast with the IUP they should have given you a better looking handbrake. What is that hideous thing doing in such a beautiful car?

IUP no IUP, it really doesn't matter. Each of us love this new Mustang, and will get the car that we want. Waiting is not a bad thing, soon we will be behind the wheel of the car we want.

All the first cars I saw did not have the IUP and I personally thought they looked great. I had already ordered mine with the IUP and I am very happy with the way it looks. However, it would not have been a deal breaker if the IUP was not in the package IMO.
The car is a wonderful car with or without the bright accents.

Hey all.... I see the Pics that Brad posted comparing the IUP and Non-IUP. B) Let me tell you that the photo submitted of the Non-IUP makes it look alot better than it does in real life. IMO....The non-IUP stinks....especially if you get all charcoal..... 'nuff said

There is no big deal.
As long as we all get what we want eventually.
Its when we dont get what we want when it becomes a big deal.
