technically a single clutch isnt the devil vs a DCT if it's done right.

in all honesty i love the 7AT in the Z. its responsive and quick to where it feels real unlike the AT in a camaro. using that as reference since i recently drove one and played with the AT stuff a bit. also drove my friends C6 AT vetter and it's awful. i never have driven the C7 AT yet so i can not comment on if it's good or bad.

buttttttt yes a DCT is awesome i know. then look at something like the aventador. i believe its a double plate single clutch and just as fast as most DCTs but still kicks you in the back of the head lettign you know you just grabbed another gear lol
