Reply to "Electronic Paddle Shifting ZF 5 & 6 Speeds"

Oops, looks like BMW has had electronic paddle shifting available on production vehicles since 1999, and this 2001 article about BMW's second generation paddle shifting system looks authoritative and comprehensive. So, it seems like ZF and BMW already have two things in common, German origin. Maybe BMW's technology is adaptable? I'd love to be able to be able to have it, sometime in the future, when I win the lottery.... Guess I'm just thinking out loud and already years behind some folks on the learning curve of paddle shifting. The schematics or diagrams look fairly involved, but it's already available, which means someone is probably already experimenting with parts they've obtained. Hmmm, when they figure it out, and get a kit into production, sure hope they educate me a little more. My Wish List to make me put a little more effort into the 9 to 5 part of life....
