Love the Paddle Shifters

This rough 1st 2nd really bothers sports car owners? The next gen 7at won't be aggressive enough because people keep mentioning the rough 2 gears. I like that jerk feeling

This rough 1st 2nd really bothers sports car owners? The next gen 7at won't be aggressive enough because people keep mentioning the rough 2 gears. I like that jerk feeling in conjunction with a burst of torque. Reminds me I'm driving a something emotional & powerful.

Stiff clutches in these cars? Hahaha!! Jump in some old school manuals and report back.

are you referring to my post or are you referring to the rough 1-2 6MT owners experience?

my gearing is very short. i'd have to keep the throttle extremely steady and rev it out a bit in 1st to hit second smoothly, or just use drive. it's not rough when redlining it

6MT it's a different story.
