I don't think a VW is aggressive enough to really get that feel. The EVO MR stirs the soul. A GTRor GLA/CLA 45AMG. Those are cars that will change your mind on DCT. The reviewers get it backwards. Trust me on this one.

Updating my post.

I say that cuz like Porsche Audi, they focus on seamless shifting. Mitsubishi, Nissan, Mercedes feel way more mechanical after pulling the paddle. Giving you a "I just shifted" feel.

that "shifted feel" is clunky lol. well at least from 1st to 2nd. I always feel like my gearbox is about to **** up on me.

I think there should be a balls to the wall colab for a Nissan GTR AMG. Get the crazy loud and exciting AMG engine then GTR the **** outta it.

The AMG GTC coupe is pretty close to that.
