For me having had>15 manual tranny cars (overhere where I'm from a manual tranny is not an art or something)
I really regretted my E90 M3 having 6MT. Long gearing, V8 doesn't have grunt down low...Not kidding.

Can't we just agree that it's about personal preference instead of this eternal debate?

I had a DCT last summer and have a manual now. Both have their pros and cons. Sometimes I miss the DCT but most of the time I do not. Like many others I'd say DCT for the track and manual for the street.
Off course it's about personal preference but I'm sure there are guys who regret their 6MT vs DCT but not saying anything because of mentioned (and other )reasons

This thread is about DCT drivers and their experience with it . I'm doing trackdays 5-6 times a year. But also in the street in manual mode it's just the way I want it.
