Biggest post embargo 11 GT surprise?
 

This is definitely the biggest unexpected news for me to see in the first '11 Mustang GT reviews:

As good as it gets, or as good as it gets for Ford? :)

Sounds like Ford might have learned something from Mazda.

The Speed6 I drove had the sloppiest shifter I've ever felt in a car. Maybe even worse than the ones in the old U-Haul trucks. Don't really remember what the 3's shifter was like though.

i'm in love with the 2010+ mustang.

the interior is really, really nice. it, for example soundly trounces the Camaro's interior and also easily pWnZ the corvette interiors and this was only a v6 convertible interior.

i really would like to get the new GT, also.

hard to pay full price, though, given the price break that available if i were to get a Camaro, though.

Our Mazdaspeed3 has a terrible shifter. New solid shifter base bushings helped a lot but it still sucks. Of all Mazdas I've driven, only the Miata has had a nice shifter.

Clyde, the shifter on the S197 Shelby was pretty nice, too. Better than my Vette for sure.

Are they Mustangs selling for full pop? Or is it just that you can't get supplier/family/friends/I-know-someone-that-knows-someone-that-works-for-your-company pricing?

a little of both, actually.

the dealers don't move much in Boston on mustang GTs or corvettes. gotta go back to MI to get decent pricing.

You didn't like the RX-8 shifter? I thought it was in a seriously small class with my Miata.

Overall, I haven't been happy with many shifters in FWD cars.

lemming, there's a salesguy at a dealer NW of Philly that's been on forums.themustangsource.com for a long time, has a stellar rep there and is selling '11 GTs for not too much over invoice.
