I'm embarrassed that as an American I would see us openly accepting mediocrity in a product of such heritage and brand awareness that not only we purchase ourselves, we export to our friends and neighbors in other countries. As an ex proud union worker myself, I took pride in everything I did. I was paid well and trained well.
Every time a mustang rolls down the street, there is a rolling example of great design, modern efficiency and hours of great engineering and styling effort. The mustang is not just a car. It's an icon of Americana. To have the car given poor attention in the build process shows a lack of American pride , a disrespect of the brand , the consumer and the engineering and design teams.
With all due respect to the thought that its acceptable in a $25-$40K car, I say you're completely wrong.
Here is simple proof. Next time you're at a traffic signal next to an $18K Hyundai Elantra,
Look at it carefully. No crooked windshields, good body lines, nicely built car for what it is.
We can and should be doing better. There's no excuse.
I was really suprised that the fender to bumper was that uneven being i had a 4/2015 build date so I give em a little slack because its black paint. I do remember during my search on the lots seeing my share of "shameful seams" lol
