Is "no manual available" a deal-breaker for you regarding whether you'll purchase a new 2020 GT500?

What transmission for you ???

I was reading through the 2019 Ford GT owners manual and here is how they describe the transmission.
"7-speed dual clutch automated manual transmission."

So the new 2020 GT500 actually has a manual transmission, it's just automated.:)

I have a guaranteed allocation for a 2020 GT500 at MSRP. Upon learning that only the DCT will be offered, I will not be purchasing one and am going to order a 2019 GT350.

I see you’re in Maryland. Any chance you could hook me up with that allocation?

I will have to take a look at Camaros and Challengers if Ford does not offer a manual. I never owned either of those pony cars and have no idea what they presently offer in terms of transmissions, but there it is.

It is my assumption it will be only offered in DCT. There is always the option of a 13/14 GT500 lightly used or a new GT manual that can be beefed up with forced induction. :)
