And seriously, why can I get a DSG in an f'ing VW Golf and not in an American performance car? Shift time is lap time and for the person that wants a bit of performance along with the show off qualities of a 75k Camaro a DSG or similar offers modern track performance when you want it and casual automatic driving when you are puttering around town or heading to the local cruise night.
