Manual Returns for 2023 so they say

[jroyk]

If i raced mine I would have gone with an A8, but a 700hp manual with the Challenger’s styling just checked all the boxes for this old guy that couldn’t afford a muscle car in my youth. I really don’t care what else is out there or is in the works.

For me, it's not that serious and more about having a good time. I get big a rush rowing gears at the strip, a bit of challenge for sure

I dont get the manual thing in a high powered car. Maybe because I'm a drag racer

Its fun on the street.
Its fun going around corners with a stick shift

But in a drag car, auto all the way.

For a speed thrill, A8 is the way to go. But 99% of my driving is putting around town, and the M6 is much more entertaining and engaging for "normal" driving!

You need to drive my car some day you will be enlightened.

An A8 needed for a speed thrill? Why? There’s no bigger thrill then nailing it in third, hit forth at 110 and still keep wiggling and shimming all the way up past 130 in 5 seconds one handed. Took my neighbor for a ride before they moved away, he was in my cat a few times but not at the 1100 wheel level. Did a 50-130 pull with him across the bridge. He was ghost white and hands shaking on the way home. I asked him “well, what da ya think?” He just looked over at me and said “fast, scary fast” lol. Me, I’m used to it I guess as the cars a pussy cat and very tame but is very fast.

When I had my 87 mustang it started out as a stick. It was fine until I put a blower on it and was making around stock Hellcat power (less hp but less weight) Every shift was like a roller coaster, pulling hard you shift it dips next gear pulls again. Putting in an auto was so much smoother. My Evo was a mid 12 second car and it was fun with a stick. My winter cars for 20 years were sticks (4 different cars) For me once I start making a lot of power the auto was more enjoyable

My 84 Capri (fox body platform) G5 at 500 wheel on spray is SCARY lol, but just engine is a consistent 12.25 car at the track that takes me to the finals most every time I take it to the track. Lightning fast shifter it is and very consistent for an old school cable clutch car, I have fun with it bracket racing at the track. But it takes like an abysmal 13 seconds 60-130 at is pretty hairy at that speed for any length of time on the street.
I agree A8 is a better track platform no doubt, wish I could have 2, a stick for the street and an auto for the track.

If had your car and your driving skills, I'd sound just like you!

1 Billion % not happening

There are few built now. I ordered one weeks ago, but no update. Some that have ordered have VIN

Hoping something does come through for you guys. I’m also hoping a new model brings new and better parts for use on older ones.

It's awesome you have a car built in December 2023!

How does the 6 speed drive, good? I hear some complain about it.
I've driven so many three pedal cars in my life, strongly doubt this one will be near bottom of my list.

CLK430 was a V8 upstage to the BMW 3 series. My wife's was just like this but was a HT (that's Hard Top for those of you in Rio Linda ) Very nice car, but expensive and overbearing in it's attempt to "help" you drive.
