The current automatics accelerate faster than the manuals. Dual clutch would be beautiful in a mustang though, but I doubt it.Been a die hard manual trans car all my life but, I am super curious about this "8 speed tranny". If its anything like the Porsche PDK or Ferrari's dual clutch. C&D stated not even the best drivers, driving cars with manual trans. could turn better 0-60's against these high tech dual clutch transmissions. Dont get me wrong I like and own a manual trans. 2006 Mustang GT. But when C&D and Motor Trend state they have seen a good dual clutch trans knock off as much as 3/10th of a second in a 0-60 run. So if the S550 w/ M-82 goes 0-60 in 4.2 sec. and one with a dual clutch tranny goes 0-60 in 3.9, just laying it out there
