You sound biased :giggle:

I do really like the blue though lol
I HAD to get a 2021. It HAD to be
either Velocity Blue or Twister Orange. There was simply no other choice. :cwl: And the choice was excruciating. I still love T.O.

Would take 10spd for free? That will hurt some feelings LOL
He’s never driven a 10-speed tuned by Wengerd.
I go back and forth if I want a stick but I made the decision when I bought the Mach and I have a blast using the paddles .

Absolutely I would refuse delivery. Ford has no idea why they are doing. But thankfully some of the good tuners can fix the frightening bad behavior.

Honestly, whatever you have at times you want the other. Realistically, being from NY city area, I couldn’t imagine what a PITA driving a manual in real city traffic would be. You made the right choice I think.

I see, I can't comment because never driven the 10spd. All I know they are faster lol.

I drove an A10 M1 just for giggles before I bought my manual. The shifting in anything other than normal mode was jerky as hell and totally not fun to drive. Even my wife commented how bad it was as a passenger.

Yeah every 10 speed I've driven was stock for reference but it acted like it couldn't decide what gear to be in. I'm really just on the manual train until I'm unable to keep driving one. It's just more engaging for me personally.

Not sure if it would be worth upgrading to a Mach 1 if you're not going to be taking it to the road course. On the other hand it would definitely be worth trading for a manual car if that's what you enjoy. Even if the 10r80 was 4x faster than an mt82 I still wouldn't take a 10spd for free. I've tried SSs, GTs, and even a ZL1 with a 10 speed and it is the most fun-crushing jerkey ass transmission I've ever driven. Real fast in a straight line at WOT though 🤷‍♂️
My ZL1's 10 speed auto is not jerky whatsoever. It also isn't indecisive about what gear to be in. There is simply no comparison between the Ford A10 and GM's tuning of the A10. The Ford shouldn't have left the factory with that programming.

Welp, got her home. Introducing, my new to me, 2023 Mach 1. After a solid hour drive home, I definitely made the right choice. This car is better than my GT in every way (at least the ways that matter to me). Thanks everyone here for the conversation and opinions. It was helpful, the few that dislike the A10 even helped me feel a bit vindicated.

Now to figure out what to do with my username...
