Me too.... The DCT in this car is fabulous. Amazing how the computer monitors everything and adjusts the throttle blips to suit your driving attitude.... amazing!
That brings to mind a video of Randy Pobst driving a Porsche a while back for whatever magazine test that he's a part of. He had the car in auto mode and it seemed to be doing a good job up- and down-shifting, except that when he got back on the gas after a corner the car downshifted right away. Basically, the car's decisioning on downshifting left it in too high a gear for proper acceleration.
The actual individual gear shifts that a PDK does are very nice, though.
I think when Heavymetals added "I am not talking about using the paddles either" they are talking about the shift points the car picks in addition to the actual process of changing gears...?
