It's the one that Granger uses and recommends. Not sure the name, but I'm sure they would provide the contact info. I talked to them before the pick-up as I wanted PPF all down the rocker and lower door, as I've had experience with that area getting blasted by the front wheels on another car.
agreed. I love my Mach, but there is no way it beats a base C8 with equal drivers.
(I'm knocking on the C8 a bit here, with a 2 seater, the kid CAN sit up front, I put him up front in my 2-seater all the time, and the frunk can fit a weeks worth of groceries easy.)
Well, that wouldn't be a very nice way to put it, but they have a lot less experience than I do. The C8 is a waay faster car than any stock Mustang (other than GT500).
Contraz on the sweet ride. Great write up and updates as well.Those are my initial impressions over the first 1,200 miles on the car. Looking forward to a bunch more. As above, the car purchasing experience was excellent and the first big trip was a great experience. Can’t wait to get the car on-track to try the environment it was really designed for. Hope this is useful for some of you who might be sitting on the fence.
- Tremec 6-speed- Super nice! When new, especially when cold it’s a bit clunky, however if you let the trans “breathe” between shifts (just take a little pause) it will engage the gears completely smoothly. Same is true when warm, but you can shift a bit more quickly. I think it will wear in and smooth out, as when you shift real quickly, it doesn’t like that, right now, but I think with more miles it will get better. Shifter is really nice, direct, solid engagement, really if you’re paying attention you shouldn’t ever miss a gear. The only issue I had is sometimes, hot or cold, engaging reverse can be a bit difficult. At those times would move shifter into first, then second, then try reverse, not sure that really helped but it would eventually go in. I don’t like having to use a lot of force to get anything into gear, but again might just be a “it’s new” factor. Also, the clutch is really good too. Engagement is really easy, consistent and smooth. Wouldn’t change a thing with that either.
