anyways the best case scenario for the AT is a 6 speed version of the ISF's tranny. more realistically it is a version of the IS 6AT, but hopefully they used some of the ISF tech to "sport" it up a bit. you expect smooth shifts in a lexus, but for this car? you can make it shift faster at the expense of smoothness and call it part of the driving experience
that's what they did on the LF-A. they went with a single clutch auto-manual with intentional shift shock for the "experience"...
