I'd love to have that VW tranny... I was pretty sure it could coast (maybe I'll need to test drive another one) and I was under the impression that the only detraction was that it had to temporarily unload the power to shift unlike a CVT. It would be nice if transmissions could be independently tested for transfer efficiency, power required for pumping etc.

I'm waiting for the gear count wars to move down from just M-B and Lexus...
