I have the 9 speed. I actually like it. There are some loud haters, but I’ve found it to be a good transmission, thus far.
that said, the 7 speed is a DCT and I generally like those. My Infiniti has a DCT and I love the crisp shifts.
I would suggest driving both and choose which you like better.

I do experience a hard 1-2 shift when the transmission is cold. That's just something we have to accept, however. These transmission are geared quite low in the first few gears, and they're also exceptionally sensitive to transmission fluid temperature. Once I drive for a mile or two the transmission warms up enough to where the shifts become pleasantly smooth.
