Lateef ◊ 2011-09-03 20:03	Why's that? The three-door was launched for the 1983 MY.
karoomay ◊ 2011-09-03 20:16	I believe in North America, the 1st MY was 1984.
karoomay ◊ 2016-04-05 17:30	Correction, it was indeed introduced for 1983

A 1983 1/2 model, like the original Ford Mustang was a 1964 1/2 ?

I cannot find the exact month of debut but 1983 and a half is pretty accurate if you ask me. I believe January of 1983 but I forget where I read that now.
