Here's to hoping it has more in common with the M8!

Amazing in-car footage from the Goodwood hill climb. The commentator mentions an "8 speed steptronic" but the steering wheel/paddles don't look cheap and nasty (CF), and the upshifts at least sound good. Hard to tell how responsive it is on downshifts (can't see the driver's left hand), but this video makes me feel a bit better better. (helped by the outrageously loud exhaust setup!)
