Thanks. The manual trans is one of the main reasons we got the 335, an auto would have been a deal breaker. Ever since she had to learn to drive stick when the car she wanted did not come in auto, that has been her preference. When we got the first Touareg she missed driving stick almost immediately. I prefer the M over the 335 but I drive the 335 on the weekends since it is our family car so I get equal seat time in both. My wife would be the first to tell you she prefers the M when we head to the mountains, the 335 is a little under-damped and does not instill the same level of confidence- but it is a very good handling car and it's quick. Long term I may get some new suspension for that car too.
