Yes, this is very true. Just look at how the Ford faithful flipped their lids when Ford initially said that the new GT500 would only be available with the DCT. Ford quickly changed their tune once the moaning and groaning started.
I want a manual. I do not care if a DCT is faster. I want to row the gears myself. For those that truly understand, it gives you a connection with the machine.
GM, make a manual available on the C8.
