I just got mine on the 6/03/2010, and did not have to pre-order !!!! decided on a golf gti last week and picked it up saturday.In black too, and have just ordered the Lifeshine pdi kit.I agree with you on the auto, maybe it was better on the MK V as the manual was poor between 2 and 3rd gear.Have to agree with you there. If the manual does have a weak point, its the change between 2nd + 3rd, found the same thing in the R32 I've seen gazillions of reviews of the mk6 GTI and I've never read anyone mention this as a weak point. Never even heard it mentioned at all. Transitions between gears (no lag) and the gearbox itself I've heard being praised countless times.
