I don't understand this obsession with race cars for grandpas. DCT is here to stay and will be the default transmission for any performance car going forward. This is a "Competition" version, why would it not have the faster transmission?

Who said grandpas like manual transmissions. I am 28 and you're probably older than I. |

While I understand the quicker transmission line of thought, it is disappointing for the CS to be offered in DCT only.
Sure, a DCT equipped vehicle is quicker around the track (assuming other variables are constant), but for some of us the 6MT is more engaging for DD duty. As a member here posted in some other thread, 6MT is more about style. |

So, which color?
Thought the CS would the right thing for me, but I'll settle for a Civic/ZCP and retrofit the CS stuff it is worth it. Too bad I'm broke, though.

Pretty soon dual clutch will be gone as well and like the new RS5, the M3/M4 may soon only be available with a torque converting slushbox. I'll keep my six speed F82 thank you. So much more rewarding. |
