I drove my dads solara on and off for a year now and I had no idea it has sport shifting. My boyfriend let me in on the secret that my dad wouldnt tell me about and I tested it out. It was pretty neat being able to switch from automatic to manual. Kinda weird not having to push a clutch in but I like it!
I know im probably the last person on this board to drive a car with sport shifting but I thought id share my experience. -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City

ok lets make clarifications
VW = DSG BMW = SMG by DEFENITION i don't care who you are SMG and DSG are both MANUAL transmissions. they BOTH have clutches and pressure plates just the movement of the hydrolic is done electronically by YOUR selection. It will NOT select a gear for you it will not up or down shift for you i've tested both E46 M3 SMG and the brand new M5 SMG as well as the new VW DSG VW DSG is an 8millisecond shift which is the fastest so far i <3 the SMG its great |
