I noted about 4 incidences where the trans was not in sync with me in a 20 minute drive. I've never had that issue at all in the year and a half that I've had my ZL1...completely different cars but I'm just saying. I would probably be more willing to get a GT over the SS but only if I planned to do some heavy mods (boost, suspension, etc).

Yes I heard some say the A10 in the mustang gets confused sometimes. I didn't experience that. But maybe a longer drive I'd notice. I know if you drive the PP A10 w/the 3.55 gears, it may have more of tendency to get confused since it will be shifting more often.
If I get the GT auto, it will be a base with maybe the black accent package for bigger wheels and tires and black roof. For $995 it's a no brainer really go get 255/19 vs 235/18, which are kind of a joke on this car. Just buy it and drive it and don't really care where I park it.
I'd keep it totally stock as I would a 1LE. But the 1LE is almost too pretty. That car I would care where I parked it and want clean those awesome wheels all the time. I'll be honest, I'm kind of sick that stuff, LOL.
I had a Whipple S2 '15 GT PP that made around 700hp at the crank. I bought it used. It came with the Whipple.
Yeah it was insane power but pretty much unusable on the street and I don't track cars. Always driving in "containment" mode. No interest in going that route again. The GT and SS 1LE have PLENTY of power for the street for me...more than enough. I'm usually a manual guy too but the A10 on the Mustang was so good, I got out of it thinking, "I don't know if I want a manual anymore, LOL".
