So to summarize they already have a 10 speed AT that they poured a pile of money into developing it.

Plus they have Caddy owners who demand a plush ride and minimal NVH.

Putting a DCT in the Camaro alone would be expensive and would never get past the bean counters.
You think like a GM Product Planner. In some circles that would get you a pat on the back. In some circles it'll get ya a single finger salute.

(For the record I'm giving you a pat on the back.)
