The shift lag on the manual F80 is the biggest flaw of the car in my opinion. 1st to 2nd is fine but 2nd to 3rd and so on, absolutely terrible lag when you shift, no matter how fast you shift. This has been brought up by some in the past but maybe downplayed as a shifting issues and no so much the car itself, but it is in fact a big problem in the f80. After driving my buddies 718S, it was very clear that this was an issue on my car, the Porsche just kept pulling hard each shift, no delay.
So this is very cool to see, hopefully this can be felt during a test drive when they start coming out, but it would be awesome.

Yaeah absolutely
And in general they seem to have payed attention to details for the G80
And I'm sure you can feel that on a test drive, otherwise you have to change dealer
