ive heard the problem is due to their design layout of boxer engine and awd they cant really use something off the shelf so they have to use in house transmissions for everything. given the popularity of the manual and limited use for a dual clutch in any of their other products i doubt we will ever see a dct wrx/sti.
that being said the new impreza platform has hybrid capabilities and a performance hybrid with cvt might make it worthwhile
