I had to make a quick trip to the orthodontist to snip the wire that was stabbing me in the cheek and this was in the parking lot. It was auto but pretty cool nonetheless.

Something tells me the abundance of auto transmissions seen on these has something to do with the number of people buying one with a manual, having never driven a +400hp car with a manual, then lighting up their clutch and burning through it in a week once 700hp is applied.

There was one in Lethbridge identical to this one until about a week ago. Perhaps the same one?

I suppose it could be.

You might be on to something. My hypotheses is that the car is already crazy fast and it won’t be any faster/quicker with a manual so in that case why bother?

Considering most super cars can shift in a thousandth of a second with their auto trans. At that point the degree of human error / reaction speed becomes a problem.

*queue the “but manual is the only true way to shift and experience driving for what it is (while ignoring every other aspect of the driving experience)“

That’s exactly what I was trying to say.

“2 hands on the wheel and giver shit!” is the best way to experience a car.
