The 6 pistons are really meant to hold up better if you ever go to a track.

I do notice the MRC and the clutch. The MRC is awesome. If you go from track suspension on a bumpy highway, you can feel your head bobble a little. Switch to MRC on the fly and you just feel the vibration of the bumps through the steering wheel but your head doesn't move at all. That's the easiest way to describe it.

The clutch gave me some trouble since I have very limited experience driving manual. I couldn't feel it grab at all when I first drove the car and I stalled - A LOT. Then I started focusing on the RPM's the heads up display gave me a visual reminder as well. It's just something that a person new to a stick will struggle with at first, then it becomes second nature. I practiced all night.

Funny story - I go to fill up before calling it a night at the gas station. This cute Brazillian chick comes over to me and asks me to help her find her button to open her gas cap...and her car definitely wasn't new LOL!

I love automatic cars, but cool to see that you had the guts to learn to drive stick on a $50k car, you are a braver man than me!

I'm just too lazy to switch gears & hate learning new things lol

The extra cost of the A8 is also the reason why the MRC option$ became out of my reach.

Maybe in 7-10 years when I order a vette from Becky I'll go Manual?? I'll stick to the paddle or tap shifting for now.

Brazilian girl needed her gas hole button to be pressed, wow.. They are some of the hottest!
