I think ferrari's are technological achievments, But what I don't like about them is that they don't offer standard manuel transmissions any more. Though I could be wrong.

Unhappy

well MOST new Ferrari's have the paddle shifters instead of the classic 'gated' shifter. same with Lamborghini's too. I am not saying they do NOT offer them, but the semi automatic ones are the more popular and more produced than the 100% manual ones :(.

call me when u drive a new ferrari and when you drive a real proper ferrari you will understand.

look at the dash its a freaking laboratory control room. Traction control, suspention control, LSP, launch contorl, sport more, drive mode, secret all of lunch burnout mode, Etc. The manuals thicker then some textbooks. And all that and you dont even get a stick and you are stuck with the flappy paddles

Why do you think that you cant have a manual?





And the paddles are based on the system used in Formula 1. The car was built to be the closest thing to a street legal formula 1 car. IF you had driven a 'new ferrari' you would know.
