370Z 7AT vs DCT / DSG Auto?

I've previously owned a DSG equipped Jetta, while concurrently owning a 7AT G37 and a 6MT Z. Now, a 7AT FX50 (same transmission as the G) has replaced the Jetta.

I've previously owned a DSG equipped Jetta, while concurrently owning a 7AT G37 and a 6MT Z.

Now, a 7AT FX50 (same transmission as the G) has replaced the Jetta.

The 7AT does not compare to the DSG box. DSG's shifts were absolutely seamless, and had faster reaction time in manual mode. The 7AT drives like a auto tranny car, everything is a heartbeat slower than the DSG. I've ridden in my friend's F10 M5, Audi S7, Benz C63 AMG, X5 50i, all of those transmissions were smoother, faster, crispier better than our 7AT (I know...they cost a whole lot more too).

Our 7AT in isn't too bad and I still have fun. It's not piss slow, but I fantasize having a DCT/DSG in my G.
