7th gears?
 

Do you think the 7th gears on manual tranny are a real?

I can't think of any street car that has 7 gears. Some cars like the S2000, RSX Type S, Camero SS, and MKIV Supra's come with 6 gears (foward) and 1 gear for reverse. They may be counting the reverse gear as well. But no car (that I can think of) has 7 foward gears.

[Edit: Several European countries have or developing 7-speed trannies. I believe that the Ferrari Enzo comes with a 7 speed as well as a Bugatti. Mercedes released information about a 7-speed automatic and there are rumors about a 7-speed SMG gearbox being in the BMW M5 and M6.]

Some large trucks (Semis) have 7 speed transmissions.. Some even have more gears then that. :o

I think semi's have 21, if I remember right. My stepdad is a truck driver, I think that's how many he said they had.

And aside from all that Ducky said, the Eclipse in F&F had 7 gears. :pukey

I believe your right, my dad drives a semi. Some of the smaller HD trucks have seven or more gears as well.

Yes I believe if someone sells or advetises a 7 gear tranny it IS in fact there.

New Eclipse come with 7th gears. Right? :confused:

yea school buses have 23. they have like 3 different reverse gears as well.

they don't even have a 6 speed....

the only mitsu with a 6 speed is the 3000gt

they got 7 gears in europe on expensive assss cars

BWA HA HA HA HA .....you just made my night man....:toofunny: :toofunny:

No, they only come with 5sp transmissions and a 4sp auto.


He was being sarcastic because in the movie they up shifted what seemed like 20 times. ;)

they did that in almost all the cars lol

Hey i thought it was a rather entertaining movie, anyways doesnt the viper have 7 gears cuz i remember driving a car on gran turismo 3 that had 7 gears.

The Oracle Viper in GT3 has 7 gears, but the road going Viper RT/10, GTS, GTSR. ACR, etc... all had 6 gears.

"I think semi's have 21":yes:

how exactly would you shift a 7gear tranny... too many ... 6 would be hard enough.. i've never driven :o :o

what makes it hard? it's just another gear...
