Better get ready to write a check cuz the DCT has 2 of 'em.

I think if more people really understood the DCT they would stop calling it an "automatic". True, you can use the mode where you don't have to do anything but twist and go, but it's really a regular transmission that is electronically shifted. No slushbox with a torque converter. If you use the manual mode, you can shift at your pleasure just like the antiques, or if in sport mode it will shift for you and ya better be hanging on because it will go like hell and shift faster than a human can with a handlebar mounted lever and toe shifter.
My VW GTI has this same technology and I wouldn't want to regress to a stick or true auto. This is the performance transmission of the future. Formula 1 has been using it for awhile now.
Just offering another viewpoint. Enjoy the ride, no matter what.
