Hmm... There's only one on track clip that actually sounds like a manual box...

I'd say thats enough considering its always the same car. We know a manual is coming, but its doubtful that the V8 will get it or AWD unfortunately. And that makes me sad, because i'd definitely be a buyer of either.

At around 0:42 on the video, it really does "sound" like a manual shift.

EDIT

At the very end of the clip, that is definitely a manual box...

Don't disagree. It was just the pass after pass nature of the on-track coverage with only one audible upshift.

Default Manual Gearbox F-Type testing at Nurburgring

The car looks lowered also to me. Can anyone tell. Also is it 4wd?

Car does look lowered but the hood looks about the same so I can't tell if it's AWD or not...
