well dude, think about it... this car has a lot of technology built into it, and in order to have all that technology work well AND consistently they built it around an auto... with a stick all it becomes is just another fast car with a stick, with the auto it adds some character... at least thats what i think

I think its better they are doing it like this. I think you only other thing they might have been able to incorporate (and i dont even know if they did i havnt done enough research on this car.) is like the evo with the paddle shifters. I think that would be perfect.

Yea but keith come on, the GTR is in the C6 Zo6 price range and makes very close times on the strip and im sure it will swallow it up in the corners. Compair similar cars atleast in the price range cause we all know if we wanted to compair pointless things to each other we coud always talk about all those evos that run 8s or vettes that run insane times too but what is the point really its just not the same


on a side note the ZR1 looks sick though

GR1 and the Z06 have too low of a first gear ratio and cant hook up.

I know all that man. Im right with you.

You are ignoring my main point. They should have made a stick option. End of.

I totally understand the need for the new tranny/clutch setup, i have no issue with that, i think its awesome.
im not ignoring you point at all. But there isnt much point to make 2 completely different cars just to get a stick shift in there. I mean were talking about cars that are driven by computers head to tow. in order to make a manual shift it im sure would damper on nissan to have to rework all of the drivetrain and diff electronics just for a stubburn man ya know what I mean. who knows it may come out at some point with one. I actually hurd the Evo 10 will have a autoshift or year one then go to a choice of autoshift or 5 speed
T O E

;-)

and i still think its fugly and not worth 72k......fast car yes, worth it IMO not really
