Guard Dad,

I agree with everything you said, but the 7AT is a "slush box". It does have a torque converter which is the definition of slush box. It's not a true double clutch. What I love about it is that on every upshift except from 1st to 2nd the converter is locked. That's why the shifts are so crisp. The automatic rev on downshifts is habit forming as well. I find myself doing it just to hear the new Stillen CBE.
