Many Ford Mustang owners might not know that the MT-82 six speed transmission is made in China. This transmission comes in the GT, V6, and unfortunately the Boss 302. From what I understand, the Laguna Seca gets the GT500 transmission.
There have been numerous problems with this transmission and a class action suit will follow. It is unlikely that Ford will recall and swap all these transmissions. That would cost millions. I just can't believe that they would produce a Mustang with a Chinese transmission, let alone recreate a racing icon with one. Why couldn't they have just put the GT500 transmission in all the Boss's? I've been hell bent on buying one these for months. All I can hope for is that all the 2013s will get the GT500 transmission.
