PDK/DSG etc is the death knell for manual gearboxes imo; in 20 years time I will wager you won't even be able to buy one.

Get the PDK.

Converting the PDK to a - frankly silly - 7-speed manual that isn't very good, rather than producing a super-slick, much-lighter, 6-speed, proper, manual transmission is the death-knell for manual gearboxes, not the stubborn, recalcitrant, infuriating PDK. Never trust your ass to a computer. biggrin
