Luddite seems to be a favorite word of yours...The 10 speed auto is a MUST. I'm guessing Filord will sell many more of those than the manual. It's both faster for those who actually use the car as intended as well as more convenient for those times in rush hour for those who enjoy the car often.
Leaving it out while the comp is doing it is asinine.
It's going to happen.
Enough of the Luddite thinking of a few holding the king of the pony are back.
Awd or no isn't as much a need as the auto.
Let's be real for a moment. The auto will allow for better performance period. If you want to shift it yourself regardless of speed penalty, cool. Then check that box. Meanwhile the rest will get the performance they want.
Everyone wins.
An awd KR trim certainly wouldn't hurt matters.
As an enthusiast I agree that it would be great to see Ford build an automatic option and sell more GT500s. I'm not going to buy one, but I think a lot of people would.The 10 speed auto is a MUST.

Hmmm, King Ranch edition, kewl
opcorn:
People said the same thing regarding the Auto when the C5 and C6 Z06s came out. Can see what happened on the C7 platform and it is selling very well.The GT500 will never ever ever be an auto or All Wheel Drive. The Mustang Platform is designed as a fun v8 muscle car. This is a Mustang... The specialty model's is a name your paying for.
You can make a rear wheel drive car handle, perform and out due all wheel drive's as well.
This was a huge debate back in 03-04 when the Cobra came out because they started using Mustangs in drifting competitions. But to this day, the design has shown itself.
Bada boom, bada Bing.Shelby American sell the S550 based GT and Super Snake with the current 6-speed auto.
GM have already shown the Camaro ZL1 with the new 10-speed auto.......so I'll be very disappointed if Ford don't give the 10-speed auto option with the GT500. And I'm not a drag racer......
