lol, in case you missed my older posts, i am with you. i have a e93 m3 with 6mt. i simply refused to get the dct

i don't care if i am slower, i want the link

that's why i said if i want a track car, dct or dsg it is, hands down. but for normal street driving, manual is more fun to me

I think this is the right move, the computers have caught up, and driving a car with paddle shifters is faster then the manual now. Also with Lamborghinis getting lighter, it also improves performance and gas mileage.

As for no turbos, that is what the aftermarket is for.
