Porsches 7 gear transmission is not alone.

Mercedes has it, the coming Lexus flagship has it and even
GM took out patents on 7spd gear boxes of two types:
one for front engine RWD cars and the other for Front engine/RWD/rear transaxle cars - the Corvette.



Jimflat6, how does this all tie in with PAG's owning 20%+ shares of VW and in turn AUDI? Would we suspect a transplant of a VW's DSG on the Porsches like VW's Toureg's V6 on the Cayenne? Plus I really can't figure out all the jargons and mechanics in the working of a F1 Ferrari type Gearbox and Lymbo's E Gear (Audi based) and Audi's S Tronic and VW's DSG and Tiptronic S. Apparently Tip has no clutch hence more reliable and more durable in start stop traffic? How do they all work?
