The reason you have not been able to choose anything other than the 3.31 gears in the auto is because the track pack is not actually available yet. It will not be available until early summer, I believe. When the track pack is available, I believe that Orion_240 is correct in saying that it WILL be available on automatic transmission equiped Mustangs.

sorry on that error..it is indeed a 3.31...my demon has the 3.23s...
i didnt mention this in the article, but i dont like how the trunk face meets the tail lights...if you get a chance, look at the profile of the lens up close, and how the trunk doesnt follow the same lines. it leaves odd gaps at the top and bottom of the trunk face.

I just came from the FORD dealer and spoke with the Performance manager. He informed me the "track-pack" is an available option for either the auto or manual later this year.
The 3.73 Rear-axle Package and the 3.55 traction loc package are manual only options.

Saw the 2010 at a dealer on Friday night. The inside is nice, but I'm just not a fan of the looks of it. I like the hood, just not a fan of the rest of it. I need to see some modified a little bit before I can make a final decison on them

The interior is much better as far as fit and finish but its a little less sporty. The gage cluster is much better for actually being able to read them. I like the color stitching on the seats. I drive an auto but I tried a manual and I too was quite surprised at how soft the clutch was. I even commented to the saleman on that point. My old legs did actually appreciate that though, not seeing it as a fault like ROTM did. There are bona fide reasons why folks buy automatics. I like the overall look of the exterior but I don't like the plastic surrounding the bottom of the car. I like the 6er grille better than the GT as it has the GT500 look. The car I looked at was a Grabber Blue which I did not like at all, never have. I much prefer Grabber Orange, which unfortunately is not available for 2010 .

leaps and bounds ahead of the 05-09. everything is soft touch. the center counsel know has covered cup holders and the arm rest has actuated release opening for front and rear compartments. LED's everywhere. The steering wheels leather is awsome, much like the GT500's, but better. audio controls on steering wheel. One thing though, the knew stereo was not that great. the knew ice blue display for climate and radio are a classy nice touch! all my honest opinion.
