ordering the pdk would be a no brainer for me, except having had the continuing incredible four year  experience of driving my 07 tt. the car is a non-daily driver that is pretty much used for, well the enjoyment of driving on great non conjested roads in nm. pdk at least for me would deminish this sort of fun. personally i would find my self using the paddles for awhile then probably just bagging them and drive the car like any automatic. is pdk faster surely. ask yourself how many occasions would you really find your self in where you engage the launch control to aniliate the guy in the opposite lane, that hasn't happened for me. ....good luck with your decision in reality you can't go wrong with either choice.
