the Veyron gear box is not $10K - more like $100K from Ricardo. heck a wheel from a Veyron costs, $44,000.00 (not many TUV certified 240 mph wheels out there )

the PDK will be a 7 speed - hopefully it will appear in late 08' as an 09 model change across the board.

articles on DSG technology:

I don't understand how it works as a 7 speed - since the "traditional" DSG is setup as two three speed transmissions on two shafts.
