As someone who almost jumped off the Camaro train in favor of a 5.0 Mustang (vehicle weight and visibility were main issues), (may god have mercy on my soul) I did some hard core research online and nagging visits to local Ford dealers. To my chagrin, there was a major deal breaker. The Mustang auto is an old fashioned, (IMHO) slush box. You put it drive and hit the gas. What fun is that. As one who has driven an Audi for 11 years with a Tiptronic, and a Formula 1 fan where all the cars are select shift WTF is Ford doing with a 1950 tranny in their premeir, (not including the Shelby), vehicle.
I'm back to a Camaro and will not stray again.
