Any of you guys buying this car as a manual AND using it as your daily driver... I should also note I commute 25 miles to work, 25% is in some traffic, and 50% coming home is in traffic.
I would get a manual only if you truly prefer shifting your own gears. Otherwise, opt for the automatic. That way you can kick Mustang ass while you hold your coffee.

I've got a manual trans in my SS and love it. I've always loved my manual cars. With autos I tend to memorize the shift program which makes me really bored when I drive, and then I sit there and mentally criticize it or adjust my driving to minimize its annoyances.
