Top gear acceleration.

[anotherneon]

Sure are a bunch of smart asses on these forums. I remember when I was young and knew everything. Then I grew up and learned I didn't.

Or, if you think it's slow...

Check out the other two. Specifically the 0-150 MPH and top gear acceleration. The 5.0 trumps them.

You have to understand why you're getting flamed...

I read this. I subscribe.

Dont think it would be a problem, as long as you rev match. Assuming redline is 7k 4th gear will take you to about 100mph I believe.

More like 110

I wanted to play it safe, I think it actually goes to 114mph

They are called MANUAL cars for a reason. You have to shift gears manually. With an auto car, when you want to accelerate, the car will downshift for you. With a manual car however, you have downshift manually when you intend to accelerate (in a reasonable manner that is).

If you drive a manual car, be willing/ready to shift gears.

You can just keep it one gear. I've found in the manumatic mode in my car that there's really never any need to leave 3rd gear under any circumstances.

On highway passes to get the kick on the pants feel, you do have to drop the gear from 6th to 4th gear, but don't forget to hit the gas pedal to the right rpm or a little above your current speed. The advantage of the auto will be that rev matching and smooth downshift acceleration. But i love my manual and would never change it.

3rd gear at 50-70mph, the rpm will be way over 2000rpm ;=)

Yeah, but how often are you ever going to be driving over 50 mph?

Oh you know, any major highway in the country...

Maybe at like 3:00 a.m.... most of the highways I drive on, there's way too much traffic to ever get to 50 mph. I mean, I've done it before -- I've gotten my 2015 up as high as 70 mph -- but it's not an everyday occurrence.

LMFAO at your posts. Can't even reply to them anymore.
