Performance

the way the power comes on you get that very theatrical turbo lag... that first gear pull i was like this oh this is just bliss

The upshifts actually have a very similar feel to them. They're just a lot quicker in the DCT.

skylines handle so good i have zero fear right now... it's planted it's not spinning it's not crab walking
