I have both

I have a M6 and my wife has an A4 and I really like both, Just depends on what you are going to be doing. The M6 is great for hot rodding around but a real pain in the city, but the A4 is great for city driving.

A4.

90% , 10% .
(corresponds to 90% stop-and-go city driving, 10% highway cruising)

I am pretty new to driving stick but thus far I love it. Gives you so much more control and it just feels natural I guess. Coming from an A4 V6 to a 6-speed hawk is crazy.

Cool

I wonder how long it will take for this thread to turn into one of those A4 vs. M6 arguments again...

Anyway... My left foot has been on vacation since 1998 and is not planning on coming back any time soon.

I travel to Europe several time a year, so I get to play enough with them manuals over ther.

What do you know....M6's are sooo much better!!

I'm kidding. Sometimes I wish I had an auto, but I love the M6. However, after a few beers at a bar or something I wish I could keep going, but no one can drive my car

M6 Here.

I previously owned a '92 Z28, '95 Z28, '85 Corvette and still own my '78 Z28...ALL of which were Automatics.

I learned to drive a stick on my wife's Sunfire and REALLY enjoy it on my SS .

I've most definately been converted
