BRZ manual or automatic?
 

really digging the news from subaru... can't wait!

it sounds like subaru is trying to figure out whether to do manual and/or automatic...

can someone set up a poll? i dunno how to do eet!
=P

also, just wondering, for the guys who know this sort of stuff (i.e. not me lol)... any chance that it would have a double-clutch transmission?

thx! =D

Dual clutch? No chance this time around. Quite possible in the future.

Me, it's got to be a manual.

First off...

1. Manual

2. There's at least 2 threads on this already.

3. There's probably a poll somewhere too.

4. ???

5. Profit!

Manual only. No auto. No DCT. Pass the savings on to us.

why u want granny tranny to sport car. ?

I shook my very trusty magic 8 ball: Very Doubtful

I want a 6spd manual that is bullet proof.

I say make both. But make it so that the sportiest trim level has only the 6-speed manual with no option for automatic. Sort of like the Hyundai Genesis coupe R-spec or the Mazdaspeed 3. Let the secretaries have their automatic in base and "grand touring/bloated" trim levels so that this car continues to sell...but make sure the enthusiast feels special too.

+1 :thumbup:

Considering the manual-only STIs, this may be possible. Would be teh awesomez too.

um... use the search function next time.

I actually like the fact that the 3.8 Track is available with automatic. I could care less about the R-Spec model and its inherently flawed manual gearboxes. 90% of owners of manual Gencoupes complain and most of them went through 2-3 trannies. The auto is bulletproof with the GC(ZF6SPD)!!

manual only? We get auto's here as well!

Auto STI is blasphemy.

:word:+1

I agree, but we got em!

did not know this

shocking:eyebulge:

to be fair, we only got them this year in Australia with the MY11 models.

They sell them in Japan as the 'A-line' from 2009, kind of like the Evo gt-a.

Manual for me, of course. Sporty cars deserve to be manual, especially a car that is kind of underpowered. An auto will just sap the power and fun out of the car. Assuming it's going to have 200 horsepower, give me close a ratio transmission with an overdrive 6th gear. Also, make the synchros really tough, and and offer an LSD.

I want this in the FT86...

I wish!

please only manual..

I hate it when people have DCT or similar and say "I drive a manual"

Honestly...

:barf:

I want to bitch slap somebody at Porsche.

I wonder if you can lockout 7th gear?
