Cool . I’ve got a 124 wagon and a 202 sedan, and, while not a totally parallel comparison, your observations between the 124 and 210 are similar to mine between the 124 and 202. Now what about the transmissions… between the 722.4 and 722.6. How do they feel and which do you like better?

I like the .4 for its solidity and, when driven manually, for its silky yet powerful mechanical feel. I hate it for not making more go power and fuel economy from the available power. I like the .6 for its heavenly gated shifter, seductive snick snick between third, fourth, and fifth, ability to make seemingly impossible go power and fuel economy from the available power, and option to blip the computer to perform synchronized manual downshifts. I hate it for its vaguely electronic feel.
