I have driven a few Mustangs but none could punch up like the Mach 1 so it was very hard to feel the gearbox as such.
A lot of folks here drive a stick shift and the default transmission is an amazing 6 speed tremec. So for manual lovers, it’s a treat.
But for me I can’t be bothered by it because driving in the Bay Area is pain. I don’t want to have to change my gears like a donkey every 10s. So the auto was an instant option for me especially as my wife will take it in a couple of years.
Coming back to the 10 speed auto, this is probably the best auto I have driven in a while. Drove a 911S with a DCT a few weeks back and this compares well. A friend who drives a GT3 was amazed what this 10 speed could do. I don’t know how good the 7 speed DCT in GT500 is - I assume it’s incredibly but I absolutely love what I got here.
For anyone out there wanting the 10 speed auto more than the manual, just go for it. It’s absolutely incredible and the gear shifts feel a lot like a DCT. That’s it.
