Authenic /CS

I'm looking to make a purchase and have come across this Carmax listing.

http://www.carmax.com/enus/view-car/...9-2d6cbb257999

However, I've noticed that it has a partial premium package? For example, the seats are two-tone but the doors are not. The cluster is the base one, and there's not satin trim on the steering wheel. I also don't think it has the mycolor options. Could this be a faux-/CS? I'd like to know before I pay the transfer fee.

According to the window sticker it was a CS from the factory.

I didn't realize that the CS didn't come with the two tone door panels unless you got the IUP package - I figured they came with two tone no matter what. That's a pretty unique CS - very cool find!!

I am 99.999% sure that no iup would not change the door panels. Many GT/CS have two tone door panels and no iup option.

Not sure but, I think they loook like V6 one color door panels on a CS.

No interior upgrade package with 125 color choice dash lights, alum steering wheel and shift ****, the 3 buttons on left are blank with iup come with message center. That car is 07 where side seat airbag was an option too.

This is what I'm going off of, right or wrong :

• Satin aluminum instrument panel appliqué – ribbed pattern
• Leather-wrapped steering wheel with satin aluminum spokes
• Satin aluminum-plated shift lever with automatic transmission
• Bright polished register rings and leather-wrapped sport shift **** for manual transmission
• Satin aluminum-plated door handles
• Special new bright polished six-gauge cluster with MyColor Feature and message center
• Satin aluminum door sill scuff plate with bright Mustang lettering insert
Dark Charcoal Aberdeen pattern front door panels

IUP was not standard on Premium trim until 2008.

IUP was an option in MY 2008 for V6 Premium, GT Deluxe,GT Premium
and not available on the V6 Deluxe. The option description does not include Charcoal Door Panels in 08. (as in 05,06,07)

09 MY IUP was standard on V6 Premium, and GT Premium. I didn't see the option for IUP V6 or GT on 09 MY, and I didn't see any mention at that point of the door panels.

This is a 2007, so I guess maybe that was the last year that was part of IUP? Who knows, just trying to help out Very possible that someone swapped before trading, but *usually* there are more part discrepancies when that happens.
