2. The "remembered" brake pressure can be reset by putting the trans in neutral, releasing clutch, reengaging clutch while using just enough brake pressure to hold the car.
So, get in the habit of stop - neutral - reduce brake pressure - put back in gear.
Now I can live with it but it should be DRIVER optional.

I've got 6,500 miles on the car and that is the best solution that I've been able to come up with.
Also, if you're really fast with your motions, and the incline isn't very steep, sitting in neutral with the clutch out you can remove your foot from the brake, then put in the clutch, shift into first and go.
The best solution would be an option to just turn the damn thing off.
