Default 2013 M/T GT's....need some input

My fiance is letting me take the lead on her mods for her '13 GT. I wanna do a short throw shifter and would like some input.

I have run just about every aftermarket shifter on tons of my past mustangs. Out of all of them, the MGW was probably my favorite. With that being said, I have been looking at Barton and the workmanship/quality looks top notch.

So my question is....MGW or Barton? I am not much help with this subject on this particular car due to my '12 GT being an auto. Thanks in advance for your help!

You can't go wrong with either MGW or Barton. Both are great, and in my books, they are equivalent as far as being lightyears ahead of the stock shifter.

I'll flip a coin to cast my vote. Heads will be for Barton, tails for MGW.

***steps away to get coin, then flips it***

Okay, my coin augury came back, and after consulting the bones, the stars, and having a seance session using a Ouija board, all the signs point to Barton!

Haha that's not a bad method to decide. Especially after making sure the stars are aligned...

OP,

I can tell you both Barton and MGW are top notch shifters. You won't be disappointed with either one of them on your Mustang. Now, we've used the Barton shifters on tons of AM Project cars, AM Employee cars, and of course lots of customer's cars. We rarely ever hear a complaint or issue about the Barton shifters and we stand behind all of the products well sell - Barton makes it really easy on our end!
