OEM D2 S8 6spd. manual trans for $3k shipped on eBay in the Fatherland... - TwoSeven 2015-10-12 21:02:41 (343 views)
- Ha.... considering the S8 never came with a manual even in Europe, this must be gold! :) - twincitiesS8 2015-10-13 15:09:05 (173 views)
  - Sorry, I was referring to the FL model not the PFL model - twincitiesS8 2015-10-14 14:05:59 (167 views)

      - You know, that nitrous setup doesn't look factory either ;) - TwoSeven 2015-10-14 16:03:01 (159 views)
  - It did come with a 6 spd. I've looked at that one but it is a potential basket case with 195km - 993C2 2015-10-13 17:35:32 (178 views)
    - Never in the US market, and as I stated in another post, only in PFL model - twincitiesS8 2015-10-14 13:59:17 (167 views)

    - Correct. - icrashcars 2015-10-13 16:12:30 (176 views)
      - PFL only... I believe. I do not see evidence in my looking that the FL S8 ever had a manual.   -  twincitiesS8  2015-10-14 13:55:27 (143 views)
        
        This is wrong. It was definitely available on S8 FL cars, just not AYS (2003) engines I believe.  -  993C2  2015-10-15 01:57:57 (165 views)
        
        Well ok... odd that there isn't much info out there about these. I wonder how many were produced?   -  twincitiesS8  2015-10-15 09:46:45 (147 views)
        
        ^^^So much wanting, so few Euros! That car is awesome!   -  TwoSeven  2015-10-15 09:28:51 (151 views)
        
        FL D2 S8 EU models did have 6 speed manual. I know of one for sale in Europe :)  -  EuroNutt  2015-10-14 15:12:21 (191 views)

      - I think the 6spd. was available for the full run in the EU - 5spd. on some SWB A8s too.  -  TwoSeven  2015-10-13 18:13:53 (181 views)
        
        D2: 2.8 V6 A8 & 2.5 TDI A8 and 4.2L V8 A8 all had manual option.  -  EuroNutt  2015-10-13 19:45:41 (161 views)
        
        We are only discussing S8's not the other models. :)   -  twincitiesS8  2015-10-14 14:00:01 (148 views)
        
        Matches my research. D2 S8: 6mt, D2 A8: 5mt.   -  TwoSeven  2015-10-13 21:09:00 (204 views)
        
        Close but actually as follows for D2 A8  -  EuroNutt  2015-10-15 12:13:26 (173 views)
