It just gives you the option to use the little nub and move it up/down, which when you come to a complete stop- doesn't even require you move that nub down.

It's still faster than my manual though, so tomatoes tomahtoes.
Since I've broken mine in well, go ahead and try it and tell me all about how it's an auto
...It's an auto.


I don't get why DCT owners get so emasculated by it being an automatic, just wrapped in a fancy name. It seems if that were to be an issue/ the simple solution (I would think) would be go manual.

Let's put it this way....when I test drove the DCT, my friend (girl) who had no idea how to drive my 2014 m6 (or any manual) got behind the wheel of the 2015 DCT we were test driving and rode that monster, flooring it- really enjoying it. She told me I should get the DCT so SHE could drive it too

Got back in my m6, tried driving it again, stall. Stall. Stall.

So...it's an auto. That's faster by .02-3 seconds than the manual.
