I'm confused lol. The brakes are the same on the 7 and 7.5 given their trim levels. That's why I said why buy 7.5 if you basically already own one with your 7?I have the PP brakes. You asked what the differences are.
And much like all things with men, it came down to pussy.Whelp, looks like another Manual vs. DSG thread has been properly settled.
Great job everyone!
My Sportwagen peasant-edition S trim has 1) a DSG and 2) a hand brake.
Real talk.
Prior daily driver is a unicorn.
A 5spd manual 5th gen Camry.
As soon as ANYONE found out, jaws dropped. People gathered around and they all stared in disbelief.
Can confirm that panties dropped while I drove that car and now I have 2 kids.
I still have the car. I let the wife peek inside whenever I want instant action.
Currently teaching my son how to drive it and due to him having a manual transmission car I've had to have "the talk" with him several times.
Not ready to be a grandfather just yet.
Maybe I should get him a DSG car.
DSG cars are automatic sausage fests.
Just a bunch of dudes talking about exhaust farts and leaky sunroofs.
I guess. My wife doesn't seem to mind but we can/do both drive a stick so there's that.So you can get their panties off, just can't get them wet? Makes sense.
I love how some MK7 guys are so die hard about having a manual, when the manual in the MK7 isn't even good.
I could at least understand the argument for passing up the DSG to drive a brilliant manual. I wouldn't pass up a filet mignon for a ribeye, but I get it. Driving a manual MK7, you're passing up a filet mignon for Spam.
I drove 3 of my cars today - the W8 wagon (auto), the manual Focus, and then my DSG Sportwagen so I had the optimum opportunity for all of this self-loathing/shame bit. Enjoyed each one. The Auto in the Passat is pretty bad to be fair, old-school slow-shifting auto but when the Wookie howl is unleashed out of that 4.0 through the twin glasspacks, I don't give a shit that I didn't pay $22K for the pristine 1 of 95 manual W8 wagons that just went on Cars and Bids...love that car auto an all.No joke, I used to be super anti automatic transmission. Our 01 A4 Avant and 05 Outback were both manual trans. Thankfully, I had a vasectomy, otherwise I'd have 10 kids.
I've relented in recent years because it's almost impossible to find a manual in family cars. My wife's current Outback has a CVT. I feel dirty, cheap, and full of shame after driving it, so I can sympathize with DSG drivers self loathing and shame.

Show me on the teddy bear where he touched you.I feel like this thread has turned into a therapy session. I think this is the part where I say "And how does that make you feel"?

Oh, and I never asked what the differences were. It stated, never asked lol
