Anyone have one in real life? Is 5th and 6th really geared that low from 4th... My st anniversary edition goes from limiter in 4th to 3k rpm in 5th...
 
That is a very interesting question. I do know of cars where the final gear is like that for economy purposes but having both the 5th and 6th feels very weird.
 
I have the older model, 2.5 and the gearing is abit like that. It makes more sense when you drive it in real life, but does feel weird in game.
 
I drive regular Mk3 Focus so I can't comment if its so realistic.

But it was the reason why the ST was the first car I bought in the game :)

I figure that you can upgrade the transmission and make a huge difference with shorter gears?
 
Its transmission ratios irl:

Looking at the transmission setting screen, 5th and 6th look like they are around the wrong way. Try shifting from 4th to 6th
