If the idea behind spending a gillion dollars on the development on the A10 was for performance, it was wasted. Transmissions exist today that are VERY good for performance. The A10 is not going to be a better transmission than a modern dual clutch. At best, it may be as good. If it's as good, what was the point?
That's my point. No one needs to continue to tell me I'm missing the point of the car.

Most of this discussion is opinion.......and you know what "they" say about that.
The transmission A10 (RPO: MXO) was not exclusively developed for performance. I am assuming you mean "go fast" or speed performance like racing.This transmission was jointly developed by Ford and GM, with Ford having taken the lead in development for various applications. It was developed with several versions,gearing and programming of TCM's to be installed in numerous models of cars, SUV's and trucks for Ford and GM. GM plans to utilize the A10 in 18 different models by 2018.
One thing I have found by being a member of several forums is that it serves a person well to develop a little thicker skin. I don't think any one is attacking your knowledge, understanding or deductive reasoning. Sometimes the posting member fails to effectively communicate their point. Sometimes the responder just did not understand the point. I take these exchanges as positive interaction with all members having the common purpose to impart their knowledge and experience as it relates to the subject vehicles or technical issues. Start saving a nickel for every time you feel slighted.Soon you might just have enough money to buy and extra mod for your car. I know I have learned more about these cars by participating or reading in these forums than I did in my any preceding time.
