Hi anyone know where the 7 gear layout is? I know i saw a pic of it but I cant seem to find it anymore. I ran countless searches. I should have saved it but I didnt... it was a nice technical drawing of the new M5 transmission I think where the gears were all weird.

Almost like

1 5 2 7 R
3 4 6

Anyone know which pic I'm talking about? I think it was a scan from a magazine or somthing.

 

Here is picture about M5 gear layout.

THATS EXACTLLY IT! Thank you very much! I wasnt able to find it I knew I saw it somewhere before...

THANKS!

 

interesting...like to try that

 

You mean try as in drive the SMG M5? ME TOO! or do you mean try shifting like that in triditional manual? Well... I'll like to try that too LOL

 

Heres something cool to read about the SMG in the M5... but I cant read it.

 

How fast will you be going in 7th gear? How often will it be used?

 

I think it should still be very useable on the highway above 60 MPH for cruising... Since they did say the gears are very close to each other... the RPMs cant be too much lower than the manual 6th gear... *shrugs* I dunno...
