NO!!! Why would we ever have paddle shifters. All we need are powerglides, solid axles, and no A/C.

What is better than a Maro with an A4? A Maro with an A6/Ferrari-esque paddle shifter system.

I will be buying a M6, but I do believe this technology would appeal to a wide spectrum of the American crowd...and to the ubiquitous ricer smurfs that dot our bountiful land.

After considerable thought and a bottle of sangria,GM should just put an A4 out of a 1 ton truck in the new camaro. Maybe everyone with more than 250 rwhp could finally quit tearing up autos!!! While theyre at it, cut down the damn 1 ton truck rear axle and put that 14 bolt SOB in!!

if GM's paddle shifters shifted like some of the others out there, not that i like any of those european cars, then I'd have a hard time choosing between m6 and A6. but i dont think that the A6 will shift as fast as some of those other crazy *** ones.

i like the idea of shiftable autos... that being said, its a bad idea for the new camaro to have one because its from GM. It will be so low in quality that it will just be annoying. I wouldnt be suprised if the pedal shifters snapped off when u pressed them. Im 100% sure GM will do what they do in every in car they produce to the camaro: make it look amazing, slap a super amazing engine in it... then flake on everything else (crappy low quality plastic interior, glass trans and rearend... ) They have yet to make a car that is perfect (fbodys are the closest). If it has enough power, it doesnt have anything else... or vice versa. Its a really simple formula if u ask me... make a car that looks amazing (im sure there are a million graphic designers out there willing to take on the task), give it ***** under the hood, and dont flake and use plastic parts. ugh i should start my own car company.

Paddle shifting may be an option, but it likely will be similar to Corvette's.
Which in all reality, works just fine. Screw Ferrari.![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)
