I hate German engineering. Why wouldn't that piece all be the same as in a Miata transmission? They take an easy solution and overcomplicate everything. I have a feeling that this is the last German car that I will own.

This car is Ford, pretty much through and through. The engine might have originated from german engineers but the transmission isn't.
German engineering is usually tops....
For the tranny problems, blame Ford of Europe.
