Let me restate my experience for you. Technically I had NO issues with my Z transmission. I loved my car SO much that I thought the grittiness, rattliness, and tinniness of our trannies (and this is common to almost ALL Z's... there's even threads of how people responded to several posts saying NORMAL, SOUNDS LIKE LOOSE MARBLES, NORMAL, etc etc etc) were all a part of everyday life with the Z. So I lived with it.

What rubbed me the wrong way was, my other cars were not like that. Not my G, not my Acura, etc etc. I just stuck with the thought that hey, my Z is just being normal... it's a "Z-thing" or whatever.

Fast forward, Test drove the 5.0. Eyes opened. Jaw dropped. Tranny not at ALL like Z (amongst many other things). So, if it turns out you like your Z and transmission, good for you! I just know I wanted the 5.0 and along with it, the benefits of much better transmission.

I knew what I was getting going in, and it's a fantastic car. I didn't have to trade up when something faster came along.

But more to the point, we are only responding (accurately) to sh!t stirring posts left by the trolls. You could have a talk with them about fixing that issue.

No one is talking smack about the z. It has issues like every car (mustang included). We just aren't looking through a rose colored glass.

The constant digs on the Z are usually over unimportant sh*t or issues that have been addressed or things that only effect people tracking the car. To hear you guys tell it, the Z is basically the worst production vehicle in the world.

You've been picking fights with everyone lately. Starting **** with billet, and in the rc threads. Maybe time to cool down.

The way I wrongfully interpret your comments makes me think the Z is the worst production vehicle in the world.
