Default Wish they'd tested the new tranny

I'm kinda interested in a hands-on of it from a performance perspective.

Default True, but...

I am lured by its geekness and yet repelled by its quasi-automatic nature.

Keep in mind it is a review on a VW site...probably only *slight* bias. ;-)

Default Now THAT is a legitimate gripe. Seriously, I can't believe Audi didn't do more for the new S4 ; (

It doesn't have to have crap all over it, but a little styling wouldn't hurt.

I think its basically the same as the TT transmission... or all the other 4Motion cars.
