So now you edit your post and take a shot at me for listing vw and Audi seperate? Truth be told I could list Lambo under Audi/VW as well. Good job missing the point.

Its not an auto transmission, period. It a twin clutch system silimar...

Wait, nevermind. Your far too ignorant to even bother with.

Why not make an automatic? It's going to make more money for any car company. If there is an auto version of any sports car that would mean more people will buy it. It's simple economics.

Standard automatics, DSG, SMG, CVT or whatever version of a sports car are becoming just as fast or faster than the primitive standard trans. With equal drivers in both cars it is likely that a properly calibrated auto, DSG and the other ones will be faster than manual. Take the Porsche 911 Turbo and the Infinite G35 coupe as examples. Tada...

Yeah, I like the rims too, but they do resemble the Enkie RPM2's that I had on my 98 TSi:

i don't think the fosgate symbol refers to a nav system coming out of the slot. i am sure it is in reference to the stereo manufacturer or components used in the stereo system. i think that slot is nothing more than a cubby hole. although i could be wrong. i do like the multi communication system in the lower pic. i want that for my evo.


does anyone have any idea what the three toggles are for on the center console in-font of the e brake handle and that one toggle behind the shifter next to that mysterious square box.

Manual all the way. I've driven the DSG in VAG cars and while done very well I was bored as can be after 5 minutes.

Paddle shifter

I thought it only has a 5 speed manual, not 6.

It's a hard choice considering how advanced the Auto is... but somthing about the manual feels so right.

The three toggle switches are probably for different shift modes.
