I think he's talking about how aggressively short the 6th is on the MT. A little bit longer and we could get a few more MPG Highway...

Yep, and 3000 rpm at 70 is just loud! If the manual had a 0.6 6th gear, it could cruise along at a nice <2400rpm purr while sipping fuel at Prius like numbers.

Wonder when they'll release FRS and BRZ to GT5 they already have the FRS just not releasing it >:T

One can hope that perhaps info will be different come official info time...

I don't really see that happening when they have released basically all specs on the car already multiple times lol...unless they massively trolled everyone, and it turns out to be 50kg lighter, have 15 more hp, etc.

Cereal, how familiar are you with standard production car gearing for 4 bangers? 3k at 70MPH is taller than average, especially for a sports car 4 banger. The NC Miata spins 3.5k at 70MPH and it's a smaller car! 3k@70MPH is economy car gearing.
