That is one mean looking machine!!

One passed me in traffic in Dublin few months ago,was jet black real menacing looking..
Thought it would have rumbled by but it was hardly making a noise..say it rumbles when twin turbos are on full chat though :p

Why would you want a manual for in a big car anyway I sure as hell would never buy or own a manual an auto is so much easier to drive and you don't have boost loss between gear changes I don't see manuals changing gear that fast I hate it when people put down autos, autos have gotten so much better over the years more and more new cars are autos I got a tiptronic caldina gtt and it's actually quicker than a manual one and it's sooo much easier to drive in traffic and around town :)

There is no way you can shift a manual transmission faster than that thing changes gears. The paddle shifting would probably be twice as fast as using a normal manual gearbox. I am pretty sure it rev matches when you downshift too
