Whats missing a shift going to break? a clutch…whoop-d-doo, stalling honestly what are we talking…stoplight on a hill stalling? Whats that going to hurt? We are talking engine/tranny, broken to the point the whole bit needs replaced, not general shit like a clutch or ebrake cable.
Powershifting for example…a ricer is going to miss a gear or more completely…a good driver is going to nail it each and everytime…
This is all beside the point, every car has its quirks, every manufacturer has its quirks. People just want to whine and complain about how a jap car lasts longer.
