actually i like the idea that toyota did with the mr spyder. they have a smg with no auto mode so basically a clutchless manual. so no posers who want an automatic but like the cool factor of the smg.

Huh? Sure I'd love a sequential six speed dog box but that's not going to happen on a street car, that's a racing transmission. If you want one you'll need to have it made by a racing transmission maker. The reason we don't is because Quaife and others can't find the financial justification to make a new bell housing. I personally don't have the $14 grand for such a thing.

WTF do you mean "manual"? Clutchless means automatic, SMG is automatic. What you guys are talking about is an electronically controlled automatic transmission with manual selector NOT a manual sequential gearbox. There is a huge difference.

I'm not sure how you can :love: something which you aren't going to find on a production street car. You may :love: the "idea" of one but if I'm to believe you love it because you've driven it and know what it is then you'll have to tell me where you drove it short of a race track or motorcycle.

Sure is pretty though ain't she? In my dreams...
