Tiptronic is Audi, isn't it? I seem to remember it from my TSX research.
I think it was originally Porsche, but since Porsche and Audi are now merged it's both.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ita, it's also Tiptronic for VWs. At least, that's what Charisse has.

Oh yeah. Porsche, Audi and VW are all one happy corporate family. I forget who owns who....

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
In BMW it's called steptronic.

I can't link to this directly (stupid Javascripted link), but go to msnbc and click on the link that says "Animal Tracks: Firefighter's purr-fect rescue" - it's a slideshow of lots of cute animal photos, including a firefighter holding a cat he rescued, and another cat receiving oxygen (with a kitty-head-sized oxygen mask) to treat it for smoke inhalation.

Oh, and the picture of the guy who had his cat's picture tatooed on his arm after the cat saved him from dying of a drug overdose....
