Not currently. But there is hope, the new TT has the same Haldex-based AWD and a 6-speed manual!

Default You said it. They used to say "Get a horse" to those steam vehicle drivers...

The left leg push is obsolete, man. DSG is faster than manual!

All kidding aside, I still love manual, but it's more of a "hobby" thing to me now... my daily driver will always be DSG. 6 speed manual is for the weekender tool-about fun car. Do you ride your horse to work? Most people don't... they're for fun on the weekends. ;-)

dsg doesn't act right on the track, i suppose it's good for a commuter car
