> Why does everyone have a hate on for the new tranny? Yes you lose the clutch, but it’s physically impossible to shift that fast. It’s a better system, and it’s the way of the future, quit being so ‘hardcore’ and learn to accept it… You notice most new vehicles come with a CVT tranny, or in the case of performance oriented vehicles the twin-clutch paddle shift?.. It sucks, but it’s what’s happening. Besides, they mentioned that it _may_ be coming with a true manual in the future.

Agreed…

Even VW’s new DSG shifts faster than regular manual. Proven on Best motoring when they had two Golfs, one with DSG and one with Manual.
