[QUOTE="carguy19, post: 16102377, member: 47250"] Hello and happy new year to all. As most of you already know, the new GT500 has been announced and looks like a great car and will be the best/fastest mustang of all time. The major downside, is that it’s sadly being offered initially with no manual transmission. Although the DCT is a wonderful gearbox and makes the car quicker and is more modern, my feeling is that a muscle car should have a 3rd pedal, and without it, I would not purchase the new car. In a road and track article (which I will link below at the bottom of this post) Carl Widmann the chief engineer states and I quote: So let’s all take a minute to reply to this thread and let them know what we the enthusiasts want. I know that people with strong influence read this forum, but I will go the extra mile to print out this thread and send it into SVT/Ford Racing/Ford Product Design. Please just write your name here on your post... first name, last initial, and how many fords/SVT’s you’ve owned in the past, and a sentence commenting “save the manuals” on this topic. I will post mine as an example in response to this thread (see below) Please don’t clutter this thread with commentary or opinions or how you don’t agree with me. I’m trying to keep it clean to send in to Ford for all of our benefit. If anyone has a question, comment, or wants to assist me with this, or help me get it to the right people at Ford/SVT please pm me, or email me at [email]carguy19@icloud.com[/email] Link to magazine article: [URL="https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-shows/detroit-auto-show/a25889205/2020-ford-mustang-shelby-gt500-dct-manual-possible/"]2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Could Get Manual - Why New GT500 Uses a Dual-Clutch[/URL] [/QUOTE]
