Should have toggled right into manual mode.
The S65 was quite literally made for the DCT, and I feel it allows you to get the most out of the engine. I’m a manual guy (wouldn’t take an E46 or GT3 any other way!) but I have no desire to match an oddly geared 6MT to this heavy, torqueless car. Sure it’s fun as well and I wouldn’t kick one out of the garage, but hardly a match made in heaven. Even less desire for an F8xM, regardless of spec. To each their own.
