I'm gonna go out on a limb and say its because of the auto tranny. While I was purchasing my '13 I looked at their showroom GT and it had Goodyears but it was an auto. Maybe its a weight thing.

I think it is transmission dependent. The dealer that I bought my car from has had several V6 performance packs, the manuals had the Pirelli's, and the autos had the Goodyears. I noticed the same thing on the GT Brembo packages, that the autos used Goodyears, while the manuals used Pirelli's. The Goodyears have roughly the same life as the Pirellis and cost a little less to replace. That being said, there are much better options for the same cost as either of these tires.

I'm with these guys It has to be transmission related.
On 2011-12's the Brembo Pkg came with P Zero's on coupes and F1's on Convertibles. Brembo GT's were manual trans only.
