From what i remember the D2 S8 Tipttonic box has a weight about 145kgs dry. A Manual gearbox prob less then half.. That alone is a good enough reason for me to go manual.. And the fact that Autobox'es are for grandparents it also reduces 0-60 with quite a bit.(found a webpage not long ago that i think stated 0.5 sec faster with manual?)

But then my S8 is LHD so the clutch issue is less important.

Can anyone confirm that the pedal plate(holding the pedals) is actually the same for LHD Automatic and Manual? from Etka that is what my eyes keep telling me
