Drop the clutch the car goes. When I had my e92 335i with steptronic, there was massive lag at throttle start. So much so it would scare the shit out of me when I pulled out in front of traffic - and the car just sat there for a second then launched... and sure... I made it through, but not feeling so cool about it.

But yeah, don't say the 6MT has lag... because it doesn't and I have a feeling you're saying that to make yourself feel better about the problems with DCT. Don't mislead readers.
Especially on Turbos. I used to have 1.8T Passat, and man, I thought I was about to commit suicide so many times. Scarrrrryyy
