I want both. Closer ratio for better acceleration/drivability around town, and a longer 6th gear for cruising.
It’s like the D2 has the worst of both. It reminds me of my old Golf VR6 which had rediculously long gearing which they addressed when the MK4 4 motion and R32 came along along. Never driven a D3 but I’m assuming the ratios are closer to what I’m wanting.
