It will only be available on the Coupe & Vert.
That's what hoping to see. :yeadog:2001Z06 said:No news when or if sequential, dual clutch shifting will happen on the Z06.
Yeah my M3 does that and it's really cool. The Gallardo system also sounds cool. My 355 doesn't do that but it's a better tranny than the M3 is. That's a hard tranny to get just right. It took BMW and Ferrari quite a while to do it. Lets hope Chevy learns from their mistakes.SexyLex said:I hope its not the ones you see on a Lexus IS300.
It'd be nice if its something similar to the ones in the F430 - auto blips every downshift.
Are we sure it is not a manual transmission, 6 speed, with an automatic clutch and shifting? This is how BMW and Ferrari do it. You get none of the mechanical slippage inherent in a paddle-shifted slushbox and this is, of course, how it is done in F1 cars and many other high-end race cars.RFC2 said:I have to say a big whoop de doo on shifting an automatic on the steering wheel :-?
Indeed, and it's a very good argument for banning such systems in racing.Chris Holmes said:Personally, shifting and using the clutch is part of the skill of driving.
