OK, broke down and got the S4...not being able

Damn, couldn't wait 2 months? The S4 is a great car, though I wouldn't want it after the warranty runs out, yikes. My buddy's 2001 S4 has been in the dealer for weeks getting a new transmission installed.

Also guessing the manual has a few glitches....

Has anyone, magazines included, driven a manual yet?

I think the car has issues, the tranny problem is not isolated, and turbos are failing - late 2001 models have a redesigned turbo. If you got the cash it's a great car, and has tons of good aftermarket support.
