Default 2013 v6 questions

Hey all!

After a few (7 or so) years, I'm back in a Mustang. Previously owned a 2007 Torch Red v6, recently purchased a 2013 v6 in Gotta Have It Green.

My particular Mustang has me a little puzzled. I've been watching some videos and they show a digital dash screen between Tach and Speedo. Mine does not have that. I have the little readout on the lower right.
Is this a feature they added mid year? Mine was produced late 2012, tagged as a 13. Vin checks out as 2013. Maybe it was part of the tech package...

Anyway, as far as I've been able to deduce, its a base v6 with Performance Package.

Thanks for the help!

Might be part of the tech package. You sure you have the performance package? They should be a little white sticker on the pumpkin that has the gear ratio. If it says 3.31 on the sticker, you probably have the performance package. If it says 2.73, you don't .

Someone who know more about this than I do will help you

My 2013 was ordered and built in June 2012 and I had all the gauges including the options between the tach and speedo (AFR etc.). Mine was a premium, MCA edition so I think you needed the upgraded version over the base model.

If your Mustang is the base model you won't have the upgraded dash cluster.

Thank you for the replies. After much research last night I have deduced that it is indeed the base model car with plain gauge cluster.

I will have to check the pumpkin later to verify gears, but the car does have the STB, 19" rims and engine cover I see in many of the "performance package" pictures and descriptions.

Unfortunately the Base model can still get an appearance (all show no go) package which is what it may have gotten.
