ED available by August 2012
Great News! If ED is available in August, then I may have the chance to drive the M5 to Provence in southern France to see fields of Lavender in bloom.

I will add another advantage to stick that some of you don't know of - its called "winter driving". Not sure what it is really but I find that winter driving with stick is so much easier and controllable then any other transmission. I am sure manufacturers have made improvements with traction and plus ways you can do this is DCT/Auto but its just natural in MT. I think it has something to do with the engine braking; when you release the gas, rather then coast (natural fuel effecient action) and look for you to slow via hitting brakes the car actually gradually slows down controllably using the engine rotation and apply equal friction to each wheel in a very predictable manner.
