Did anyone have F6/X6 Sprint and still preferred the mustang?
It depends on application.

I don't care much for drag racing and hated the mapping of the standard Sprint 6. It wasn't fun on the road and at the track, the Auto wasn't responsive enough and didn't rev match (which you can over come a little by hitting the accelerator as you shift; kinda heel-toe for auto). It should've had a more relaxed mapping in D and more aggressive in S; as it stands, there is not much difference between each setting. The auto Mustang with its paddles was awesome at the track till it cooked itself. The Sprint didn't go into limp mode but blew a turbo hose!

If the Sprint 6 was a manual, I reckon I'd have loved it. As an auto, I prefer the FM Mustang over it everyday!
