According to Ford the 2015 S550 Mustang will provide a shifting experience better than any previous pony car. Fine, what does that mean?

The Automatic
You lazy susans should get a kick out of the new wheel mounted flappy paddles, they boast a new downshift rev matching software. The tranny case has been cast with ribs to increase stability and reduce weight. The internal clutches have been optimized and it operates at a higher temp now to reduce friction.
The Manual
For all you rowers out there the Getrag sourced manual delivers a new shorter linkage and improved precision throughout the pattern. Positioning of the stick has been moved slightly closer to the driver and clear of the cup holders to make sure your power shifting is not impeded
Eventually...
Mustang will see a new nine or ten speed auto thats being co deved with GM and the 6MT will likely be replaced by a 7MT...
