Personally I'd wait and get the new one, not because of the gearbox alone, but getting a new "old" model might be a bad financial decision. The new boxes are basically the same as the current S box across the range, but with a smoother shift/less notchy gate and slightly revised gear ratios. I prefer the 6 speed to the 5 speed anyway, so I guess my vote is firmly with the "wait" camp.
