[LAC] VWs with AWD?

I hope that's a prediction that doesn't come true-
I won't buy an Audi w/ CVT.

I'm waiting for a sequential-shift gearbox, ala BMW SMG
or Magneti-Marelli (Ferrari F1 and Alfa Selecspeed).

I think the new CVT transmission is to be available
with the quattro in that time frame. Given the public's
distate of manual transmissions, you may find the CVT is
the only option available then...  Of course, it would
have to trickle down. :-)
