The idea would be to keep a car in its max power range at a greater variety of speeds.

It makes sense the way some cars are set up...but not with a lot of them, including many that do come with six speeds, like the RSX Type S. IMHO, we'd do as well and save a little money by having a five speed in the Type S.

It would cost a lot of money, add weight, and possibly have space problems putting a six speed gearbox in the DC2 ITR.
