Hard to beat a 520+hp v8 that revs to 8250rpm and handles like a race car. If you don't get the R model you'll also have back seats.

Except it limits how many times you can actually rev to that redline. Which is ridiculous. Why have that as a redline if the car will force a limp mode , not allowing it more than a couple of times an hour? They're also popping those engines like popcorn over on the mustang6g forums, so doesn't appear very reliable.

Im afraid the service writer at the dealership did not have a clue about a single aspect of my car lol. i explained what it was and that it was there to protect the tranny from overheating by limiting the revs to 5000 till it cools down etc. The reply was " Its highly unlikely that your revs were limited due to the tranny getting hot nor have we ever heard of such a situation". I thought great..just f#@#$#@ great.I canceled the oil change they were going to do at that point as well. Take it to my buddys place . He has a lift and builds race cars. Guess I will just ask for a printout from the computer .
