You can add active rev matching to that list as well. The SS is a better deal and a better car overall, without question.

The '19 MY, hitting showroom floors in a couple months, will include rev matching.

I expect we'll see more than that...mainly because of the better shift points/better powerband use over the A8.
Not happening. .05 gain much more likely. The A8 and A10 have near identical gearing. The A10 has an added gear between ~100 and ~120, much too late to really help out.

The A10 is not magical.

Well hey, if it helped the Mustang guys to the point where tune, tire, intake and they're in the 10s and they're beating ZL1s then I think it IS magical.

As long as it has a performance package equipped it'll have rev match.

I'm waiting to see what the MSRP will be. Since they nickle and dime their customers for every option, I'm guessing 55-60k all optioned out. Basically, for a little more, you can pick up a ZL1.

According to Autoblog it's all manual transmissions.

Holy wall of text, batman.

I'm always suspicious of new members popping up and posting issues of cars.. Whether here or on Mustang forum.

Don't bother reading, just listen to the video. That engine needs emergency care.
