Why buy pedals and all that other stuff - simple solution - get a DCT. No problems at all. Down shift in the blink of an eye, and the throttle blip spot on, smooth as silk.
But, what do I know.

So instead of buying a $60 gas pedal, you are suggesting the OP sell his manual car and buy a DCT.

Well that makes sense...

Well, buying a DCT for Lord knows how much, or the $60 gas pedal - I think I will opt for the pedal and continued practice with my heel.

You could spend $60 on a video game instead of a DCT M3 and have the same driving involvement?
