Thanks again guys!
SW, I stopped by a dealership to check out the models they had. I believe they said the new model will be a DCT, BUT they also told me that *every* V model is all wheel drive and that is what makes them launch so fast. THANKS FOR THE INFO DEALERSHIP GUY! He went at great lengths to describe how the front wheels pull the car to help acceleration. hahaha

If you're daily driving it in heavy stop and go traffic, I would prefer the auto though I'm not a big fan of that 6 speed trans.

For a fun/weekend car I would personally go with the manual wagon. Very rare combination and rowing gears is just fun.
