This is my first Auto Mustang coming from the GT 350 and two previously owned 2016 Challenger and Charger Hellcats both 8 speed autos. And I owned a 2015 Corvetee Stingray 8 speed auto with the Z51 package. And all I can say after finally having time behind the wheel of my GT 10 speed auto is wow what a total blast. And even to the point I feel she is more fun than my previous stick shift GT350. Can’t emphasize enough on how fun she is in sport mode in the back roads. And yeah I posted earlier but have just today hit the 1000 mile mark and can truly give back real driving time. Back roads, highway, stop and go traffic and when you leave from a light she’s just gone. And in my GT 350 stick it was just too slow off the line without having to just launch her and then everyone feels your racing. The auto just goes thru the gears and your not working her to roll down the road.
And the color is slowly growing on me lol:

Happy with my decision with an auto. It’s especially more liveble when running errands and makes for a nice DD. Plus the wife has no issues driving it when I’m using the Pilot.

A Mustang for me has to have a manual. If I bought a second Mustang I'd get a new one with 10 speed so the girlfriend could drive it.
You can't deny her right to drive a manual!

Never get tired of shifting. That’s why I buy manual cars. It’s simply more fun. And a theft Deterrent as well. Plus I drive an auto at work 8 hours a day. Granted it’s a semi truck.

Manual for me as well. Got it knowing the wife will not be able to drive it, but that is why I bought her the Audi with a 8 speed auto in it.
Much prefer the manual for this car, but do like the auto, and if I was into the straight line stuff still, I would have went that route. Chose to do the twisties this time around.

^this^ If you think about it, about 99% of the punks who try to carjack people, can't drive a manual. Every now and then you hear a story on the news about someone attempting a carjacking and they end up running away in defeat because they can't drive the car they just jacked.

Finally got my GB GT and I have to ask what shifting gears you can practically drive this car only on 5th since you can drive it from 30 mph up to 160 mph :D

A representative of NOW will be contacting you shortly.
I'm not sure what your talking about but back in high school she says she destroyed the clutch in her boyfriend's car in a couple miles. She admits she lacks the coordination and doesn't want to drive my Mustang. Works for me.

Political correctness cares naught for the facts.
