[QUOTE="Riley P, post: 137910, member: 2"] Good points Flyboy. I am hoping that as GM is a mass market company, they can make a DCT that can work for the mass market crowd. I still really wish I could row my own gears in a C8, however, I'm in no market to buy one, so it doesn't actually affect me one way or another. It's just the thought that if I could own one in the future, it would be nice to be a stick. I've only driven one car, a friends Golf, with a DCT. It was definitely a different feel on low speed driving. I noticed it hated slow maneuvers as it awkwardly had to slip the clutch. I found you couldn't drag the brakes to go really slow, such as when traffic is crawling or trying to slowly creep up to a car in a parking lot. It would switch between neutral and clutch engagement making a constant slow speed tough to maintain. Other than that, it was pretty much an automatic. [/QUOTE]
