Best While I don't doubt that the G replacement will be E-gear only I have not read that it's official. The article does seem like a lot of speculation. Also worth noting about the Urus, is in this video a 2:28 Winky says they have not decided to build it or not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the correct one. http://www.topspeed.com/cars/car-news/lamb...p-ar134247.html Thanks for clearing that up. So unfortunate in my opinion. I am a true manual fanatic, and I will not buy a car of this type without one. Values of the late model manuals should sustain well.

Double clutch is for people who like intercourse with three condoms on. I guess that's what's in with some folks. Some of us like to feel it. In other words, some of us like sex better than intercourse. Long live ISR and single clutch!! Mark my words, one day it will be back in style. The ISR shifts much faster than anyone could ever need.

Fortis Report post Posted August 29, 2012 Great, another name that sounds like a venereal disease? and for those who cry over the manual transmission, nobody orders them with MT, demand is not there, looks like only the poseurs are buying new cars.

RaginBull Report post Posted August 29, 2012 and for those who cry over the manual transmission, nobody orders them with MT, demand is not there, looks like only the poseurs are buying new cars. F1 drivers are poseurs too. That argument made sense 10 years ago when the paddles were sketchy. Now, its gotten too perfect in some instances, but still a great driving experience when you get used to it. I don't think I would want to go back.... unless I got a McLaren F1. That would be the only car that would bring me back to a bar 'n box. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_chaos Report post Posted August 29, 2012 People cried out for manual rwd Gallardo. They listened and gave us the Balboni. Look how well that sold. Even the next gen GT3 is rumoured to be PDk. Cars use to be started with a crank handle at the front but technology has moved on, transmissions do to. It is possible to have a thumpy double clutch that also has a smooth program. What is not possible is to disguise the weight and bulk of a twin clutch. As lambo seem inept at actually producing a lightweight ballerina I think the extra weight could be a hindrance. As for the name, bit of a pagani fob off IMO and it is not the first time lambo have registered a name. Urus etc... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_chaos Report post Posted August 29, 2012 Another thing with putting in a single clutch, yes brutal as hell but as soon as they put twin clutch into the car and it is smooth then people bitch about Audification and soulless character. They put a bull on the front for a reason. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinnsella Report post Posted August 29, 2012 Read an article in MotorTrend recently about Lamborghini's myopia. Durheimer, the new development chief of Audi/Lamborghini/Ducati recognizes what a piece of crap the new Aventador is and what a cop out the ISR gearbox is. Lamborghini hadn't even bothered to benchmark a 458 for the Gallardo replacement until he got there, the car widely considered to be the best in the category. What a joke.
