I test-drove a RS 2.5 today (2002). Automatic. I must say -- it is indeed a little soft at the low-end on pickup, but at 20mph or so it jumps up. Seems normal?
Also -- there were some other options I wanted and I spoke of ordering a specific config. The guy at the dealership said since it was the end of the model year, he did not know if he could order a specific config anymore---but he could possibly look around the area for one. He was also trying to sell me the car on his lot (had one 2.5 RS). Is that a line he's feeding me? Can they still get 2.5 RS orders?
Sadly, one of the options I wanted was the graphite dash plastic vs. the somewhat cheap feeling silver plastic. Ahh well.
