Everyone else? Who? Camaro is dead, GTO is an option and with the added cost of that option will put it at damn near the exact same price as the speculated Cobra price which comes standard with a 6 speed. The Vette is $20,000 more than a Cobra, for an extra $20,000 I would certainly hope they could fit a 6 speed in it. Then the next car on the list is the soon to be discontinued SVT Focus. The 6 speed in that would never hold up to 400+ HP and TQ. That leaves the Viper, again, for $80,000+ it damn sure better have a 6 speed.

For $20k I'll put a 6 speed in the new stang. Hell, I'll even use a REAL 6 speed and not one of those fake pieces of crap (T-56).

Those of us with REAL 6 speeds (5 forward gears plus 1 overdrive gear) consider the T-56 a FAKE 6 speed (4 forward gears plus 2 overdrive gears).

Any of you guys b*tching about the 3650 manual trans really aren't gonna like the 5R55* auto. This tranny is junk. I work on these everyday in the new explorers. This tranny can't even handle the 240hp the 4.6 explorer puts out, let alone 300hp.

Nice BIG scan. Thanks.

I like it. I like it a lot!

I look forward to the SVT version. Independent rear suspension and hopefully stability control will be included in that version.

Thanks for the excellent scans. Sure beats waiting a week or more for my edition of MT to arrive in the mail. I think the car looks great!
