Do you feel any difference in brakes? I feel that the brakes in 06 were more instantaneous and the 08 requires a bit more pressing.

 

I have an 05 and drove an 08 yesterday while getting my car serviced. I honestly hated the way the 08 drove. Maybe cause I am just use to mine, but - Steering was way to soft, brakes were soft, and it felt like I was cranking up a jetta or something. Didnt like it at all. Did not feel nearly as quick as mine as well. I did like the way it shifted though.
