Default Who has a manual/automatic?

I'm trying to get a feel for how many people currently drive the manual vs. automatic. My dealer told me that the new manual 3.0 Audi accounts for only 5% of their production run because there is no demand for manual trannys. I'm not quite sure I believe that!

Just curious how many drive a manual audi vs. tip audi...

thanks...

Default Manual

That sounds accurate, what the dealer said. There are alot of non-drivers in these cars who think the F1-like shifter is really "neat". Most people either can't be bothered or simply aren't coordinated enough to drive a manual transmission vehicle.
