Performance

the way the power comes on you get that very theatrical turbo lag... that first gear pull i was like this oh this is just bliss

The upshifts actually have a very similar feel to them. They're just a lot quicker in the DCT.

positive · Roads Untraveled · ▶ 22:18

like all smiles no cringe that's what you want out of a car

positive · ThatDudeinBlue · ▶ 10:03

The grip levels are a lot lower which actually means a lot of fun on the road.

positive · carwow · ▶ 13:39

It's more fun with the sequential shifter. It just wants to jump out of its skin.
