Isn't there a sticky for MYXX rumors? Yes paddle shifters would be neato-keen. As long as a torque converter isn't involved. Now a computer controled clutch with auto rev matching, that would be livable.

A CVT trans, with or without the T-verter, would be pretty cool as well. No shifts, always in the power band, now that's the future.

So basically the F1 shift system? If it were to perform like the new Ferrari system then yes, it would be fun.

I hate all forms of tiptronic/smg/paddle shifting garbage. So, no, it wouldn't be nice and this thread blows.

You should get the mountain bike gear mod. 21 sequential gears!
