Interesting - when you go to the VW site and "build" a GTI, if you select the DSG gearbox, the 0-60 time posted as one builds the GTI goes down from the 0-60 times of the traditional manual gearbox. When I built one and selected DSG, the 0-60 time went down 3/10ths of a second.
Incidentally, many trade magazines support this decrease in 0-60 times between the DSG and manual transmissions.
What does that mean in the real world? Nothing mostly during day-to-day driving.
Ur...but if one's day-to-day driving involves hard driving, well...
