    Quick write up about it in the latest Car & Driver magazine. Power numbers are estimates, but sound impressive.

    No manual transmission is a big negative to me. Super impressive nonetheless!

    I'd bet that FORD Motorsports will offer it as a crate engine, especially because it doesn't have the 'only to be installed in a GT350' flat crank.

    Totally agree.

    Maybe I should submit a free crate engine request for real world testing? With a manual!

    You know, to work out any kinks before these are released into the world and more importantly before the premium priced 2021 standard trans version debuts..

    The other problem with the Auto trans is the lame shifter 'dial'....looks like the plastic one in my Fusion Sport. I hate the stupid thing!

    I hate the shifter dial thing in general. When did society become too lazy to move a shift lever?!

    This right here! Push button starts, shifter dial, etc. I like the visceral feeling of turning a key and hearing my engine start and shifting with a real stick shift is all part of the driving experience.

    I seem to remember my old man having a car in the 60's that you needed to turn the key to ON, then push a button to start it. Can't for the life of me remember what kind of car it was though. Must have been British or Italian. He had Volvo's as well, but push button start seems to exotic for Sweden.


    I too think the GT 500 should offer a stick. It should be no more than 5 speeds though, any more is just silly.

    Me too, but we are the exception, not the rule.
    1963 Marauder S-55, Super Marauder 406
    Only factory 406 powered Marauder, and earliest built Marauder documented to still exist.

    In reference to Mr. Man mentioning his memory of a push button start, my earliest memories of being in a car include what I didn't know at the time was a 1951 Chevy 2 door Fleetline. I recall how a key would be put in to the ignition then a seperate button was pressed to energize the starter. I also had an uncle with a Chevy truck of similar vintage but required a pedal on the floor to be pressed for starer operation. Miss those machines.
    But if you gonna be exotic, why not a have a pull-start action like a 2 stroke near the hand brake?
