Normally I instantly discount this type of rumor. And you're right about the gullibility of the people at that site. But I don't think the believability of this rumor has anything to do with the web...

I read a rumor that the new Tremec TR-9007 7-speed DCT was developed for the upcoming C8 mid-engine Corvette. As with all rumors, take it with a big grain of salt. But I can't see Tremec developing a...

The Ford and GM units will be built in completely different factories, so Ford's schedule has nothing to do with GM's. One factory will inevitably be up and running first but it doesn't imply...

I hadn't heard of G2 caliper paint before, so I checked out their site. That is a really cool product! They have a pretty wide selection of previously created custom colors, too.

There is definitely a trend for cars to slowly grow over time. I just saw a video of a new Civic Type R head to head vs an E36 M3 and what was striking was how the Civic actually seemed to be the...

Yeah, it's a little odd to see people talking about Ford crying -- when it's the Camaro product team that's crying because sales are in the toilet. The car's looks are polarizing, the visibility...

No, there's no agreement about when GM is "allowed" to bring the transmission to market. I think a lot of people are forgetting that while GM and Ford developed the hardware together, they're...

If you drive it with the black key fob, max power is 500HP. If you use the red key fob you get the full 707. With the red key fob you can choose to run in the reduced power mode if you want to.

They must be doing something extremely new/novel with their shifting to do this. My Hellcat uses the ZF 8 speed and when it shifts at max speed it's a real slam-your-head-back moment. In normal...

That was a bit odd; I've never seen someone start a car in a venue like that and throw so little revs into it. Very tentative on the throttle. Disappointing.

OP, the part you have labeled as custom launch control is really describing the line lock function.

So that 531 is max engine output it can handle? In that case ZF makes one considerably stronger. The ZF 8HP90 is rated for 663ft-lbs for gas engines and 737 for diesels.

Meh, it just means the roughly 1/3 of people who want a stick get moved to the front of the line. It won't hurt total sales unless the auto is *severely* delayed.
