I've heard all this talk about how awesome the DSG is and how it's actually faster than the manual by about 1/10 of a sec in the 0-60. I'm sure it's really awesome and all, but IMHO, you don't buy a performance car with an automatic transmission. It's as dumb as BMW making automatic M3's. Maybe for some type of lead sled drag machine an automatic is what you want and need, but to me, there's no comparison when you get on a back road and go for a drive. Sure, in city traffic the auto is nice, but the whole body experience that is heel toe driving, the level of connectivity that you get with a stick, just can't be equalled with an automatic., no matter how fast, smooth, or fancy it is. Anybody have the DSG and care to disagree with me on this?
