    Helo Guys!

    Threre's a lot of time I don't see a Ferrari with manual transmission. The Ferrari no more produces cars with this transmission!? Is there only F1 based transmission?!

    Thanks!

    P.S. My english is not very good. Sorry for this! :)

    Greetings

    All of the current Ferrari production models have manual transmissions available (the Enzo was F1 only). A lot of people like the ease of use of the F1 and so the manuals are becoming rarer.

    Some predict the end of the traditional manual transmission soon, but it hasn't happened yet

    Uhm....... One more question...

    The F1-SuperFast technology is only avaliabe in cars with F1 based transmission!? Or better, the cars with manual transmission have manettino?

    Thanks!

    The manettino which selects the "level" of computer support (traction control, throttle response, etc) is on the 430 and the 599 (612?). It is independent of the computer controlled clutch (the F1) though it does change the shift rate in F1 cars.

    I am pretty sure the "superfast" refers to the more modern F1 tranny's and software.

    So superfast is only on the F1; and yes, manettino and manual clutch can go together.


    And I bet your english is better than anything else I can speak!
