Difference between Vase and premium rear valences

That's not bad at all.

I see you've said this a couple times and can't tell if you're serious, but the only thing that is the same interior-wise between the two models is basic layout.

Differences include:
-The entire dash panel, including infotainment and toggle switches

Don't care about toggles/infotainment

-Leather on seats and door trim

Did not want leather

-Stitching on dash, steering wheel, seats, door inserts, shifter

Don't care about stiching


-Additional soft touch materials throughout

Don't care about soft touch materials

-Power adjustable heated/cooled seats

My cloth seats are power. I do not care about heated/cooled seats


-Mycolor for gauges and ambient lighting

Only ricers want this option. I don't care for colored gauges. I had this on my 690rwhp Shelby GT500... didn't care about it

-Dual zone climate control

Zero need for dual zone climate control

-Additional speakers

Don't care for additional speakers.

off the top of my head

Comments in red above. So there you go. Why would I spend additional money on a package that I do not care for? Do people honestly think Base models are purchased by people who can't afford the Premium?

My reasons for purchasing my base model auto with 3.15 gear other than what I stated above:

The car is lighter weight

I will be racing this car at the dragstrip. Less weight from the get go is a plus

Twin turbo + 3.15 + 6R80 = FTW at the track.

I will give zero f***s about having leather interior when I collect my timeslip.



Edit - *** Oh yeah... I DO like the look of the premium rear valence vs. the base. But that was not enough to make me want to buy all the other "crap" that comes with the Premium. I can change the rear valence if I wanted to. Still might.

See didn't that feel good. Everyone should just contribute to the argument or not post instead of posting typical holier than thou crap about dbag this/bashing that, relax it's Friday. Time for chevy owners to stock up on 40s and Natural light

:cheers: agreed, I just like trolling threads when im bored at work. Premiums are super nice, I just couldn't make it fit in the budget for the extra 4 grand. So base gt pp with recaros was what I went with. I do like the base rear too, but theyre both great.

So are they interchangeable easily? I have guard and want to put the corsa quad tips on soon.. I see roush has a diffuser but mentioned must be premium I think ? Anyone know ?

And I did read stuff about options etc.. I can easily afford it too but I always prefer my pony cars cloth and manual etc. I have a base GT with pp and cloth recaros. I'm in love with it. Saves a ton of weight over the heated/cooled seats and all the speakers and amps etc although I do like my music and may not have minded the sound system only upgrade.

I didn't read through all of this but it seems to be a pissing match. A lot of folks go with the base because it's cheaper, but I'm sure some actually like it better....I ordered my car as a base with recaros. I do like the center stack of the premium model but didn't want all the other gimmicky stuff. Pony projection lights, multi color interior lighting.....not my thing. My wife's focus titanium has all that stuff and it is nice in that car but seems gimmicky to me in a mustang. I wanted a base interior. If ford still offered manual windows and locks I would have gotten that, too. But hey....guess what...if you like the premium model better I'm happy for you. Just don't hate on people with a base car. Some of us prefer them that way.

YES!

That is all...

I wish I could fit in Recaros. Bodybuilder problems.

You can buy the Premium rear cover(have to specify with or without backup sensors), and if you want the quad tip Roush exhaust, just buy their rear valence. If you do not want quads, then buy the Ford Premium rear valence to go with the cover. Paint match, and done.

See post #89 in this thread for ordering info on the premium rear bumper.

Haha I am with you on that! Muscle body + fat guy body combined = Recaros hit me in the middle of my back basically. Glad I am not the only one lol

Seems like there's confusion about what "base" means. It's not about engines. All engines get the base valence when they are not Premium trim, so 050A, 051A, 100A and 300A cares all have it. The three-piece valence shows up on the 200A and 201A EB and the 400A and 401A GTs.

For me, I like the shape of the three-piece, and the contrast of the black, but the extra piece of white hanging down is not my favorite. It am tempted to Plasti-Dip that part black. Anybody done that yet?

 

[Ultrakla$$ic]

This thread did not disappoint..........

Ken, if money is an issue, by all means get a base and if things are REALLY tight then settle for the crapbox MT-82 as well. Total savings!:lol:

I'll admit I haven't taken a look at the bumper to see how it's setup (1or 2 pieces). I just want to fit a quad tip muffler on the bumper.. Does this mean I have to buy a premium rear bumper first or is there a way to get a quad tip with just a diffuser that can be replaced?

 

[strengthrehab]

Yes. A premium bumper then whatever diffuser you want

Auto with the PP? I didn't think you could option them that way....
