  •   The economical transportation minded prospect has definite priorities when purchasing a car. It must be economical to operate and maintain, dependable and easy handling. Most of all it must represent a good value. And once this is impressed upon him, your selling job will be easy.

    Your value story begins when you compare the Opel Manta to Mustang II 2-door. Opel Manta is priced $133.00 more than Mustang II 2-door. Both feature 4-speed manual transmission, front disc brakes (Manta power assisted), and rack and pinion steering. Yet, Mustang II is equipped with a 2.3-liter engine, the Opel Manta with a 1.9-liter engine. Mustang II's isolated sub-frame, rubber insulated rear suspension, and staggered rear shock absorbers also put it one up on Manta in the ride and handling department.

    Your value story continues when considering the VW Super Beetle priced just $46.00 below Mustang II 2-door. Mustang II's standard equipment features over that of the Super Beetle are formidable. Consider: 2.3-liter engine; rack and pinion steering; manual front disc brakes; tachometer, odometer, anmeter, and temperature guages and full stainless steel wheel covers. All of these features have a definite practicality for this prospect. None are available as standard equipment on the Super Beetle. And we think small car prospects will find Mustang II's classic styling more appealing than that of the Super Beetle.

    And what about Vega GT; what some GM dealers have called your stiffest domestic competition? Although its priced $200.00 less than the Mustang II 2-door, emphasize Mustang II's value for the money. Mustang II offers a fully synchromesh 4-speed manual transmission. A 3-speed transmission is standard on Vega GT. Mustang II also includes staggered rear shocks, isolated fron suspension, rubber isolated rear springs, and rack and pinion steering as standard equipment. These are important considerations for the prospect concerned with engine efficiency, precise handling and smooth riding. Staggered rear shocks, isolated front suspension, rubber isolated rear springs and rack and pinion steering are not available on Vega GT at any price. Also ask your prospects to compare Mustang II's soft, color-keyed door trim panels with Vega GT's unadorned panels. There is a real value story here.
