I like my non paddle shifted AMG transmission enough to no care.

I'm easy to satisfy.

DSG tranny works pretty damn well...


but nothing beats a traditional manual box. (nonetheless, honda ones which are almost perfect)

i always havent really liked it because......


my fat friend that doesnt know how to drive stick loves the idea of DSG as its "faster" and is "so cool".

i personally drive a 6spd but next car will probably be an SMG/DSG tranny. i've been driving this car for 1 year and i'm already tired of it, lol.

and for creep. the GTR you can change the settings for the "clutch touch point". GTR = too much computer control. everything on that car is controlled by the computer. you change air filter - computer will know. and no bs, all source from GTR tech at work. and i personally heard the tranny resetting itself and going into each gear to syncronize for fastest shifting possible.

GTR > all. It's more like owning a super computer. And we nerdy types love super computers that go 320km/h stock.
