Buying a 2012, having 2nd thoughts, need owners input

Have you tried taking it to another dealer for repair? I know it's probably a pain but it sounds like the relationship between you and your dealer has reached a point where neither one of you wants to deal with the other, at the very least, you have zero confidence in them (or the vehicle).

Hey BlueStallion12,

I responded to your other post, but wanted to make sure you saw it. Please DM me your VIN, along with your contact information and mileage, so I can assist. Thanks!

Thanks for everyones input. It will take a hell of alot to persuade me from getting a new GT. It almost seems like alot of the issues could have been avoided or happened to a much less of a degree if the owner was more responsible in maintaining (checking oil) and driving the vehicle (forcing shifts). Every manual trans i've owned has had issues with not going into gear or grinding at some point or another, I know for sure if I were to continue to force shifts and get more and more frustrated that the tranny would not have ever lasted.

WOOO HOOO!!! Picking up my 2012 Race Red GT Premium this Saturday!! Can't wait!
Here is a pic from the dealership in South Dakota where it is coming from

just bought my 12 gt on 1-7-12 love it so far only issue is it seems to kick me out of gear in 1st sometimes on hills starts moving then just kicks it out but it hasnt happened in a while think I just wasnt used to the shifter when i first got it.

Hello Tron84,

CONGRATULATIONS!!

That's a sweet and hot looking 'Stang. Try not to overdose on the new car smell.

Hi slidnby,

Ok grasshopper, , I am going to refer you to the Shifting Intervals on page 224 of the Owner Guide. Give them a looksee when you have a moment. If you need any further clarification, your dealer will be more than happy to assist you further or give me a shout out.

Have an AWESOME weekend!

Sweet, my car was pretty tight from the factory and has smoothed out both in driveability and in shifting as a few miles roll onto it. So, if things're a little stiff or weird behaving, before freaking out just put a bit of use on her and see how it fares. Gear kickout is mostly engaging the synchro ring but not fully engaging the gear, for example.

You have 3/36 b to b so, don't panic.

So i picked up the car yesterday and all I can say is WOW. This thing pulls hard! Love the interior, lighting, comfort, everything!! Only problem is that I haven't been able to stop driving it enough to get some good pictures of it. Will work on that today!!
