I currently have an S3 Saloon, bought because I could opt for a Manual gearbox. Main reason why I didn't buy the last RS3 (No manual)
Now that the RS3 Saloon will soon be available to order, it's doing my head in. I want to order one badly, but scared that after a few weeks of ownership, the lack of manual interaction will make me bored of the car.
I did test drive (for one day) an S3 DSG, and found the paddles behind the wheel boring and gave up on them after an hour.
Has anyone bought an RS3 or another DSG equipped car, and regretted it? purely because of the gearbox?
Is software available to reverse the gearbox? ie, pull pack for an up-shift, and push forward for a downshift (the way it's supposed to be) as this then make it more bearable.
Honest answers please.
