Hmm... There's only one on track clip that actually sounds like a manual box...

I'd say thats enough considering its always the same car. We know a manual is coming, but its doubtful that the V8 will get it or AWD unfortunately. And that makes me sad, because i'd definitely be a buyer of either.

At around 0:42 on the video, it really does "sound" like a manual shift.

EDIT

At the very end of the clip, that is definitely a manual box...

Don't disagree. It was just the pass after pass nature of the on-track coverage with only one audible upshift.

The car looks lowered also to me. Can anyone tell. Also is it 4wd?

Car does look lowered but the hood looks about the same so I can't tell if it's AWD or not...
