I'm sure Honda will produce a 6speed version, but I guarantee you anyone who will be road racing this car is going to opt for the 8 speed DSG because it'll be faster. Not to mention, the car is still 2 years from being released.

On a lot of these newer cars, with traction control "off" its still not completely off, ive experimented with quite a few and thats just what I found, it lets you have a LITTLE fun but once it senses you are having too much it stops you.
I just dont want a nanny in my sports car, I guess im a "purist" as they say, but I can understand why some people would think otherwise. It kinda reminds me of the "muscle" cars we have now that are offered in a v6 and v8. The v6 models are good for people who just want to look good, the v8 ones are the ones for enthusiasts. To each their own I guess. I can see why Honda would outfit this car with every technological bit possible, they have to compete with the GTR.
This is why I like the Mazda Miata, MR2, Ariel Atom, etc. they are just honest sports cars.
