Yup, the S4 was available with auto elsewhere in the world. There was a
Thai(?) lister (his names "Ben"?) who also had the S4 with automatic. If I
recall, he said the 0-60 was somewhere around 8.x seconds.

In U.K., the S8 is only available in auto, bringing the 0-60 to somewhere
around 7-flat (vs. 5.3sec for manual).
