I have heard that they run better as they get a few thousand miles on them. I drove it 200 miles to my nephews graduation last week. Set the cruise on 78 and cranked up the tunes. Got several thumbs up from others on the road, including a guy in a new vette.
The car is a blast to drive.I'm glad I waited to buy this one. There is a flywheel shudder problem that had to be fixed with the 07 and 08 and some early 09 cars. Ford had to change to a different style flywheel, clutch assembly. My car was built one week after the changeover went into effect at the plant Also production on the 09's was under 4500. 50% less than any of the other 2 years.

That was certainly the case with my Bullitt Jim. The engine and esp. the trans didn't loosen up until I hit about 2,500 miles. Now at 5,200 miles and it's all good - really enjoyed the 800 mile cruise I took this past weekend.

Per Geoff Fors, the CHP radio guru, the switch occurred around that time. You should be OK.
