Went on my second test drive of the 2015 GT yesterday. The first time a few weeks ago I tried the automatic; yesterday I tried the manual. When I tried the automatic I was quite impressed by the pull of it; first time in a 5.0. It was a big upgrade from my 4.6. But yesterday I felt like I was strapped into a rocket with that GT w/PP. Honestly, the car punched me in the gut.
I was expecting the 3.73s to have more aggressive acceleration but I didn't expect the difference to be that huge. Am I just imagining things or do 3.73s have that large of an impact on performance? Given that I have only driven in a 5.0 twice maybe there were other variables at play that made the auto not feel as quick.
Would love thoughts from you guys as I am still debating on whether to go with PP or not - although leaning towards it now as I had a blast yesterday despite still trying to figure out the clutch.
