Are there any 6+ speed cars in game with manual transmission?

..and with manual I don't mean paddles only

[WildKarrde]

Why wouldn't there be?

Off the top of my head, the newer M3's are 6-speed manuals. I think probably the majority of somewhat realistic racing games have 6-speed manuals .

[Pig Mac]

Well I have a G27.. and it 'only' have 6 manual gears + reverse

[Dufoe]

If you set your paddles to up and down shifting you can access the 7th gear or you can assign a button to the 7th gear, I guess. So far I have never had to get to 7th gear.

The only 7-speed H-box cars in can think of in the real world are the C7 Corvette, Porsche 991, and the very rare FFD rally box for the Sierra Sapphire Cosworth and Escort Cosworth. None of those cars are ingame, so you have nothing to worry about.

There are a fair few 6-speed manuals ingame though, off the top of my head the Focus RS and Megane RS at least.

I see what you meant now... there are no 7-speed manual cars currently in the game.

[Pig Mac]

Thanks for the clarification guys.. sounds great!
I always want to use manual where it's supposed.. and paddles only where that is the original option.

The game is set up to reward that too - unlike Forza where no assists is always fastest, in Project CARS you're fastest with the most realistic setup. Trying to paddle-shift a manual car will have fairly slow shifts, but trying to stick-shift a dual-clutch sequential will be a lot slower too.

AFAI can recall only one sequential 7 speed gear box in the whole sim. Forumla A. Unless there was a LMP1 class car I'm failing to remember. :-/

Another 6 speed manual not listed here is the 2012 Mustang Boss302

[Pig Mac]

The McLarens have 7 sequiental speeds, but on paddles, at least the P1.
But if I'm ok with a 'real' 6 gear+ reverse I feel safe

[SternLX]

Ah ya, the P1. Only driven it once ingame. Long ago when it was first introduced before it's physics were adjusted. Haven't got back around to testing it yet. Too many cars, not enough time. :)

[Pig Mac]

That one of the cars I look forward to the most.. as I know I will never ever be able to drive one, and it's so sexy!! (even with it's 'paddles') I think the McLaren 12 also have 7, not sure about the mcl f1, as I think it have a manual gearbox

[pez2k]

The F1 has a six-speed manual too, and you're right, the 12C has a 7-speed Graziano dual-clutch.

I haven't driven the P1 in a while, but last time I did it was amazing - with TCS off you could give it the full Chris Harris and just drive sideways everywhere, balanced on the 900hp under your right foot.

[Pig Mac]

Haha.. watched the Chris Harris drive and fell in love with the car myself. Not only damn good looking, but a real monster too!

[WildKarrde]

The P1 is one of my favorite cars in the game.
