The few vocal haters on here are the ones who are insecure about their driving abilities and feel the need to tell everyone how great they are because they can/do drive a manual car... wooohooo... been there... done that... probably for longer than most of them have been driving...

My little sister can drive a manual car... So can I, but after 20 years I've realised that it's not always the smartest choice depending on where/when you drive...

I sure don't miss my clutch pedal when I'm stuck in peak hour traffic... I do occasionally miss it at other times though...

It's about compromise and I have to say that with the DCT I sure don't feel like I've had to give up much...
