Those 3.5–3.7 numbers are for the regular Dark Horse (500 hp NA). No full magazine tests out for the SC yet, but MotorTrend’s estimate is 3.0.
Not on this RWD car. Ok, maybe on a super prepped track. Going to be no different than all the Hellcats on the road. Lots of power, sure. Not usable in "normal" conditions. Our muscle car 0-60 flex has been absolutely destroyed by EV, AWD, mid and rear engine cars in modern times.

It's cool for sure, but why a dial to select gear? The most unsporty thing you can put in a sports car.
IDK. I think it's a clean look and gets out of the way instead of a fake wannabe manual transmission lookalike shifter. To me, the new interior, though some may not be into it, is a plus in a few ways. One of them being that it cleans up a lot of mess and removes things that can be broken easily - and makes it more livable and durable long-term.

Hopefully the double brow theme retunes for th next gen interior, but cleaned up nicely like this. The big screens are here to stay and to be honest, I kinda like 'em. They done grown on me. Nowadays, when I see a new vehicle with minimal screen space, I just think "outdated."

The DCT using the dial is pretty sleek and separates it from the lesser transmissions that uses the faux shifter.

It's crazy how subjective these things can get.

Same issue I had with the GT500 - the round dial selector thing is the same as the one used in my wife's explorer .......they could have done better .......

Its funny because recently was with some of my friends who own higher end cars visiting a Bugatti dealership and they were bragging about a lack of screens.....

Bugatti feels that while screens may look cool and modern now- what is cool and modern now will look outdated in a much shorter period of time as technology rapidly evolved compared to cars with minimal or no screens ......their words not mine .....
