With GT cars, when looking at pictures of cars advertised, how can you tell if a car is trad ZF Auto or MC Shift robotised manual ? And does that method hold true for each generation ?

And do the auto and MCShift broadly sound the same ?

Thanks

The mc shift have no gear knob
Maybe with earlier cars but how do we explain this ster one stating MC Shift but with a gear knob ?

Ahh. Okay. So the rule with any generation GT is that if it has a gear knob it's always a traditional ZF auto. And there are no MC Shift (robotised manual) cars with a gear knob. Fab - thanks to both responders.
