Which Transmission Would You Prefer For Lancer Evo X?

[danieltangtc]

Hi guys,

Thank you all for voting in my previous thread on selecting the right car.

I have made up my mind on the Evo 10.

Initially, I would have wanted a manual.

However, my parents want me to get the semi-auto. They think its better to drive and will have better resale value.

If you were getting the evo x, which transmission would you get?

Please place your votes above.

Luv u guys.

the auto shifts quicker.

and drives like a manual anyways.

yeh i think their semi-auto box is like the vws and audis, DSG, you can hardly feel the shifts but its an awsome drive. Id say semi auto but then if you wanted to take it to the track maybe a manual?

edit: good choice on the car btw

manual gets my vote

[RBwhatever]

manual

[gts-4 dreamer]

its not an auto, its a dgs... ie clutchless manual. when in auto mode it uses shift logic, when in "manual" mode it should not change at all unless you tell it to engage.

google DSG for indepth information.

I vote manual, but it depends on whether this car will be a daily or not.

Manual for sure.

I thought Evo X wasn't being released in Aus?

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Definately being released in Oz. Go the semi-auto.

[msuen]

Ahk good old carsguide let me down

the manual will be a 5 spd. Even the evo 9 has a 6 spd, so its being down graded.

[GTR R35]

If it is a road car then the DSG gearbox is far more superior than a manual.

If you plan to track or rally the car then a manual will be a better choice.

Listen to your parents, they are correct and if there is any problem, it has a 5 year warranty.

How do you guys find the DSG transmission in the Audi/VWs?

I have never driven one before.

Also, if I were to sell the evo in future, which would sell better? DSG or 5spd manual?
