Wow, thats a lot of gears for an auto, or for any tranny for that matter....It'll have MAD acceleration, along with a monster top end....

I think this fad with more gears is stupid. I think that jag would actually be slower since it would have to make so many shifts. Even the new maxima with a 6 speed vs. 5 speed in the altima.. Someone please convince me that the 6 speed is better I think it is just some marketing gimmick.. I dont think a 4th gen. max 5 speed could be made to go any faster any other way you gear it.. just my .02
More gears means more chances of breaking down and more things to break.
