5 speed AT??
So anyone heard anything about a 5 speed Automatic releasing soon??
I really want to get this car but 4 speed AT is just not right. |
2nd gear goes up to something near 70mph!!! When I found out how tall 2nd was, I was QUITE surprised & disappointed...
when bombing down mountain roads, can't be in first & not in the power band while in 2nd.... |
The tiptronic lets you start from 0mph in 2nd gear. I do notrecommend anyone trying that. It takes like 11 seconds to get to 60 if you do that.
|
no complaints here with my AT, zoom zoom!!

Yes, I've been at 70 in 2nd.
|
72 mph @ 7600 rpm.

i want a 5mt. six gears is practically pointless and translate into extra strain on the clutch. as great as the shifter feels, i miss my supras 5 speed!
|
4 gears is fine for me. on the IS300, the 5 speed automatic starts on 2nd gear in tiptronic mode so its the same amount of gears between both. i like the fact that we get to start on 1st gear in tiptronic mode on the RX-8
