I certainly wouldn't hope so. It seems though that the majority of QP buyers these days are the ones who want the Auto tranny as opposed to the DS, especially here in the US. I wouldn't trade my DS for an Auto at this point, as I am having too much fun with it. I think once you accept it's functionality as a motorized manual and stop comparing it to an regular auto (with torque converter) you start having real fun with it. But again, I think the majority of QP customers these days don't want to shift manually and for the auto function the ZF tranny in the Automatica does certainly a better job than the DS. I really don't hope that the DS is a "dying dinorsaur" though.From what I have been told, the DS is a dying dinosaur for the QP.
Don't expect to see it any more.
It's all auto tranny from now on.
don't quote me but i think the GTS springs might not be retrofitable to the skyhook suspension.I have no interest in an Auto. Really really love my '07 Sport GT with DS. However, would like to get my hands on the new springs so I lower my '07.
Hope Mas keeps the DS for us real drivers.
I agree, I agree. For the Sport GT a natural choice should be the DS. But I guess, there aren't enough sporty people around like us to keep DS alive.I certainly wouldn't hope so.

If that's the case, I guess the GTS would be a good choice for a sporty 4 door... So what's "raw-er" than the MCV? Lemme guess... The 430 Scud?Thanks guys... i am just contemplating coz i have something "raw-er" than the MCV coming soon... so was actually thinking about a decent 4 doors car... the Mitsubishi I doesnt really strike an impression...![]()
Hmm.... So, still can't figure out what it is..Whatever the case, remember to take some pics for our viewing pleasure when it arrives eh....haha... my friend here in HK has a GT3 (not the RS... we are getting old and not having the luxuries of life will drain us further...).
yes the raw-er machine should be around soon... i hope. the scud is not easy to come by here in HK...
so thus, not the scud...
