You won't find that anywhere else. If it were just whining, the Viper and 'Vette forum would have the same issue. They don't. 'Vette owners are probably the pickest, too, as a whole.

EDIT:

Just tried it. This was on page 2: TR-6060 Grind Parts List - Team Shelby
I don't doubt you that there are issues with the GT500. What I'd like to see is some sort of statistical data that shows us what percentage of vehicles actually have a problem... it's really impossible to tell just by looking at an internet forum.

Hell, you could search the Z boards and read about the transmission replacements on the '09 models for bum 5th & 6th gear synchros and think there was some major problem, when in reality it was only an isolated problem.

All I'm bitching about are the illegitimate claims of problems with the MT-82.
