Looking at buying a v6 sometime from now. It has a manual transmission, which is pretty hard to find, at least in my area, and so I was pretty excited to see it arrive at my local Ford. Only problem is, it doesn't have a spare tire(cmon Ford). While this certainly isn't a deal breaker, I'd like...

Can someone who's driven both explain the differences between the cars?

I'm considering the 3.55 for the v6, as many have told me it improves acceleration. What I would like to know is if there is any reliable data out there to prove that it's faster than the standard gear ratio, i.e. 0-60, quarter mile, etc.

Does the 3.55 gear ratio increase acceleration by a significant amount? Also, what kind of losses to top speed are incurred by selecting it?

Post your times as well as what gear ratio you have

Can any owners tell me how realistic the difference is? All ford says on their website is that city mpg is better on auto, and i can't really trust what they claim after seeing owner mpg reports

ford says that the auto trans will get 2 mpg better in the city than the manual. Can any owners tell me how realistic this is?

What kind of gains did you guys get on your stangs?

Stock is 3.31, PP is 3.73, and an optional one is 3.55. What's the real difference with these?:shrug::shrug:

Any info on how much quicker they are than stock?
