Wait, so even in auto mode, the trans will sometimes start in 2nd? I guess we'll have to go back and test Sport mode.

Don't think the 'rentz will go for the 4.8 and it's $8k premium over the 3.0si. Our sale guy told us that V8 models in general aren't doing too well sales wise, so there's a concern about depreciation, esp with the diesel coming out and potentially the N54 also.
