I have gone the route of the 300D's and am quite impressed with the acceleration on my D-T. The car is tight, quick and quiet. At 90 it seems to be merely coasting with perhaps half the pedal left. My TD feels like it is working much harder at speeds of 75-80 but the ride is wonderful. I have heard a number of guys on the forum advising against a 240 automatic.
