I say get manual. Auto is just a waste of a car in my opinion.
so your saying instead of getting quattro you'd rather get fwd cvt tranny.....?

go to a 04 or 05 and get a ultrasport if you can find one. There is no stock b7 that could ever look better then a stock b6 ultrasport imo.

Personnally, if I really needed to buy a car now, give up the manual over the quattro.

I've had fwd, and despite the fun of a MKV GTI, I HATED the fwd, it was the achillies heel of the car. (it was DSG btw).

That said, I enjoy my 5-spd in my A4, but there are days/times when stick isn't that much fun.

And IMO, buying a FWD Audi is just... wrong. It'd be like buying a fwd BMW (mini doesn't count ;)), lol.:rolleyes:

If you can hold out the car you want will come along... Mine did.:D

x2, the whole point of Audi IS the AWD and there aren't very many times a manual sucks. The car does enough on it's own. I wanna be part of the driving experience too lol.

All or nothing! :cool:

Not necessarily the FWD... I would say the CVT tranny is the limitation.
It depends very much on everybody's driving habits (!)

I think he's saying he'd buy only a manual tranny even if it means giving up AWD.
