I have about 90 miles of seat time and I don't know what to say. Here is a list of past sport cars I am comparing the ride to:

95 GT MUSTANG
01 VIPER
08 CHALLENGER
08 VIPER
13/14 GT 500
18 GT 350
21 GT500

1. I have been driving in sport mode "11 mpg" and I love it.
2. DCT will take some time to get used to, but its kinda cool... driving stick for 25 years
3. speed is sneaky.... all the other cars I owned i felt the speed build up....this one puts where I want to be for the way I drive with ease
4. I can feel the weight ...I have have to see what my GT350 and GT 500 weighed
4. Very docile... my 14 GT500 always seemed like it was trying to kill me..wife would not drive it.
5. easy to drive in sport mode and predictable power in you are used to cars without to many nannies
6. once I get used to giving control over computers I will updates

You had the pleasure of owning a sweet list of cars. The list has also progress nicely. We have been able to get our hands on pretty much every Ford vehicle possible and the new GT500 is definitely one of our favorites. If you ever need anything for your ride feel free to give us a shout we are always here to help. Here is a quick picture of ours:

Once you start pushing it to higher speeds it will shrink around you and start to feel very light and nimble :-)

2022 GT500 and a few others
On stock tires the ‘13-14 was scary under 75deg ambient.
On the weight the new 500 is about 300# heavier than the 350 (3800+/- to 4100+/-)
Congrats on the new ride.
