The problem with so many people here is that they've never sat in anything but old domestics so they don't realize that quality interiors can be had without paying more or adding weight.

Ok your right about the good materials vs bad material.
I personally think the Mustang Interior is made from very good material and it fits great, no gaps, and exposed screw holes. Plastic does not necisaraly make the interior bad. The Dash is a low glare material that covers an impact material for saftey, the silver is real brushed aluminum, and the dash being a textured plastic, the center console arm rest is a soft material Leather faux. the seats are not bad, there not Cadillac quality but I have sat in them for 8 hours driving back from Florida and I liked them, they were not bad but I have Leather. I do condition the leather every week because I know that they dry out in a car real fast.

Compaired to the last generation Mustang the S197 is a lot better. But what I am trying to say is I would rather have a High Quality plastic dash than a High Maintenance Leather or Faux leather dash that can rip and shrink in heat, it's alot eaiser to wipe the platic down when my buddy puts his shoe print in the dash. Sure I want a Good Quality Dash but I really don't care if it's plastic I actually perfer it. But Thats Just me.
