It's not that hard to shift quickly. All it is is timing :D (granted, I've only been able shift that quickly and that SMOOTHLY a few times... bloody 3rd gear grind <_<)

maybe I should make a video of me in passat quick shifting..everyone will be so impressed:rolleyes:
I'm not trying to get into a conflict here...
But most europeans never do use an automatic..
I guess it's normal...
And North American Transmissions do suck....
:(

Yea there are BARELY any automatics here. Mostly standards and I am totally digging that. It was wicked knowing how to drive a standard before I got here. My car's standard back in Calgary. Everyone here was like you wouldn't know how to drive a standard, would you? I was damn right I would know biatch! hhah

Have to agree with you on that one - he almost ripped his shifter out.
