But who doesn’t love some flappy paddle gear changes?

Over 20K miles on my 2017. No issues. Still love it on the street and for Autocross.

I initially wanted a manual car and almost pulled the trigger on one after a test drive. It was fun and engaging, but after reading many different opinions of the A10, I was sold on it. I miss rowing gears, but the A10 is a beast. Coming from the last car with a 6L90E, the A10 is a 150% improvement.

I know the A10 is faster. But coming from BMW M5 SMG and DCT M3 I wanted to be more engaged in driving. Auto just seemed lame to me. For that reason only I went M6.
I hope the A10 will be bulletproof for years. But I remember all the BMW nightmares after a few years of ownership. |

Hey all,
I have the dreaded A8. Are there performance gains in the A10 vs. A8 in 0-60 and 1/4 mile? |

I specifically ordered an A10 ZLE when the order banks came open. It’s straight awesome. 3400 track miles so far.

I think the biggest difference is the A10 doesn't have the notorious shudder issue and I would take that over performance any day - but, it appears we have our cake and can eat it to in that regard.

I will go ahead and disagree. The A8 is a steaming pile of shite. Tuned or not it still shudders, slips or bangs gears for no reason. I fixed mine by getting rid of the car. If you had a different experience, cool. But I hated it and really tried to like it.

However, only someone with real statistical data could tell what the real deal is, not worth discussing based on such a tiny sample as folks on this forum---and especially not in an A10 thread (sorry OP).
