I'm new to this forum and in the process of ordering a 2011 Golf TDI. I am currently driving a 2003 BMW M3 convertible with SMG and missing the fun of a manual shift.
I have driven the TDI with the DSG tranny and a GTI with the manual. The GTI was more fun. Not sure if it was the the GTI or the manual that made the GTI more fun.
My question: Does the manual in the TDI have the same "throw" and feel of the manual in the GTI?
If they are different, is there a "short throw" aftermarket kit for the TDI?
The sales manager says the GTI has a shorter throw and totally different feel but he doesn't have a manual TDI for me to drive. Based on what I've read online I'm not sure he knows what he is talking about.
Any knowlegeable feedback will be appreciated.
