Wasnt trying to discourage the stick guys, they are hit or miss, some have issues and some dont. My GT500 didnt but all of my friends here in town did, so after seeing so much failure and the need to try and mod it to perform correctly just thought it made sense to go auto. I will admit I used to like to row the gears too, but not that much any more

Great for DD and capable of far more than the manual with no mods.
If I get bored and want to shift put it in sport shift and shift it, but a tuned 13 A6 doesn't get boring...and it doesn't miss gears at the track if I go

An auto wasnt an option on mine unfortunately. Track pack = mt82
I seriously considered an auto with how much power these mustangs can put out... but liked the track pack too much.
