I can't understand who at VW makes these decisions. I live in NY, so I can't
get ANY TDI, but why do they think people only want an automatic in this
car? If you are interested, you should try driving a TDI with a manual
(Jetta or Golf). You will see it feels like a very different animal then one
with an automatic transmission. That lag issue is not an issue and it pulls
nicely from all speeds.

Good luck with your choices!
