Power>interior quality. I drive a french hatchback so I have neither.

Never seen one of those come out. The radio display cover it shitty plastic that scratches of you wipe it with a paper towel. No rear floor mats and cheap door plastic that is prone to shoe scuffing. But everything is stupid easy and cheap to replace.

Oh agreed! I just find the lack of quality in the mustang hillarious!

That’s true. And if anything “mechanical” breaks, the aftermarket is filled with superior replacement parts for cheap!

A sports car with good power and a cheap interior, seems they have their priorities straight if you ask me.

Works for the Alfa 4C (not quite as cheap as the mustang though).

yep. buddy of mine has a 2011, and the interior is the worst part of it.

Also the driveshaft, all 2 pieces of it, but we don't talk about that ;)

I mean. The interior in premium trim lime mine with all the shiny bits LOOKS nice. People still wow at it even though my car is 4 years old. But the build quality is cheap. And yeah, that driveshaft is coming after my long tubes. Beforr I get slicks.

oh don't get me wrong, I was *this* close to buying a V6 premium for $4.5K under MSRP this summer. it looks amazing, and I love the stang to death, but I just didn't like the quality, and it didn't wow me as much as the GLi still does.

and yeah! good man!

My friend who's got one has a bama tuner, and is ordering springs, a panhard bar and a driveshaft as soon as he can

I just wanted to be wowed by the power of whatever car I bought. But alas its still a pos. A fast pos

for me, the GLi does that enough. Sure, it won't powerslide or do a burnout

but it's good at what it does, and that's cornering

next up though, I'm getting a challenger!
