Could this be the least original choice of colours?

Not sure I like the DSG, but then I'm comparing it the 8 speed in the Beemer, great pop from the exhaust when changing gear, Dynaudio is great, new cabin layout and design is great, ridge around the alloys is annoying. On the whole I like it, need to drive a DSG R now and then I'm sold.

Power wise the Edi felt quicker and a nicer sound too but perhaps that's my bias?
