Yep… amazing deal. Keep in mind though that my car is a special order and took me 3 months to get.

So, in comparison to the priciness of the new mustang with all the flares, how much of a difference in $$?

I also just ordered the exact same, except black and without Recaro seats, even down to the spoiler delete. This is just the realistic and gadget-free review that people need. Thanks for the review.

Very accurate review of this car, great work!!! I agree with pretty much everything you say. I ordered a 2013 back in May in the exact configuration you tested – Stock + GT Track Package + Recaro seats. These are the most essential items for this car, IMO. Everything else is just a gimmick.

I have read so many complaints about the transmission. Mine has not given me a single bit of trouble. Hitting redline in any gear and power shifting has not been an issue. I love the way it shifts, the throws are very short and precise. I have also read about those who shift at redline only to find their clutch pedal is stuck to the floor. Luckily this has never happened to me, the clutch feels perfect. My last transmission in my BMW was great but this MT82 is even better.

You have inspired me to write a review of my car. I think I have enough seat time for a preliminary writeup.

Not sure yet – we’ve got two VERY cool Mustangs for the upcoming season, but we’ll see!
