ditto of the ditto.

Me and the Mrs did a full GAP analysis of the differences between the GT & EB and opted for the GT in the end based on the subtle aesthetics between the two.

I went v8 for two reasons:

1. Its a mustang - and to ME that means V8 muscle car

2. Porsche 911, Mercedes AMG, BMW M - all have gone turbo and majority with auto boxes. I don't know how much longer we will be able to buy a brand new manual NA v8 car.

I just hope it turns up.

I have to agree with you there, being offered a V8 with manual gearbox is very rare nowadays as most things are auto box as standard
