Then the next RS will for sure not have a manual as well.

Since I will never buy another car with CL wheels, I guess I have already saved myself a lot of money.

Hey "LUPINN"! Are you going to spread these around without attribution or a link too?

And those who are in the process- it is just plain respectful and common courtesy to provide a link and attribution to the source of what you are copy and pasting.

Is it me, or does the steering wheel look a tad smaller than the prior gen? Note that it's completely round, whereas the old one was a bit flat on the bottom.

At any rate... I LOVE that it's a fatter wheel!
