No other details...I posted everything I have learned in the last week. We will know for sure in June when the dealers go to Spain for the 2009 models release.

If the choice only involved the merits of PDK vs. manual, I would probably agonize over it. But the price differential makes it easy. I'm certainly not going to pay upwards of $4k (I'm guessing here) for the paddles.

99.99% certain tranny choices for 09 =
5 speed tip
6 speed manual
6 speed PDK, probably 5k+ over tip pricing.
source = PCNA so cal service rep.

we drove an Aton Vantage auto / manual tranny yesterday
and
we drove an audi DSG for 3 hours today trying to determine if PDK is for us

Aston tranny = thumbs down
Audi DSG = interesting
research continues



enjoy
