another data point scott, sorry about this, i know how you hate letting facts

rang up my friendly dealer and asked the price for a transmission for the rs2.
he wasn't sure, but said over $20k nzd (nobody had ever asked him before).
i asked him for the price of the torsen, he looked it up and said $7,500.
