Well there is a very common scenario where you can extract all that power on the street. Flooring it on an empty stretch of road to get that rush of adrenaline. I don't know about you, but I'm just a big kid and I love to do that as often as I can. Safely, of course. That's the main reason I love the PDK, it allows me to accelerate as quickly as the car is capable of.

I love fast cars and driving them fast (well, accelerating quickly, not going fast.) Other people love the involvement of rowing gears at a more leisurely pace. There's absolutely nothing wrong with either preference. Ideally the cars would be offered with both transmissions.
