My wife's car has an MT-82 so when I feel the need to stick something into a corner and row the gears it does just that.

My auto with a loose converter is still more fun to drive on the street in a straight line. Flashing the converter makes for a nice "blip".

The right convertor is definitely key with an auto on the street. The wrong selection can make street driving absolutely miserable even though it might haul ass in a straight line.

That's even subjective. Some have higher tolerance for certain things vs. others.

How about those 2015 Mustangs? Seems to be a lot of "Internet rumors" flowing. It will be interesting to see what Ford does however I will never own one.

I'm not speaking for wbt but, if i was guessing.
One of the fastest N/A 5.0L mustangs around and getting faster.
Setup that works for 1/4 duty and daily.

Stick with what works and continues to perform. Whats upsetting is some F/I cars havent even come close to a 10 second 1/4 mile

Also initial photos of new body looks like a mut. Fusion or mustang, New age or modern? Does ford even know?

Just doesn't appeal to me. Not a fan of IRS and if they come up with a way to make more power that I can retrofit, then no real need to change.

The IRS stuff is probably the biggest deal breaker. It is one of the reasons I dumped my 2010 Camaro SS for a 2011 Mustang GT. So much more expensive to make it reliable enough for consistent strip duty.

The "Coyote Tax" will be renewed all over again as well.
