Default Quattro or no Quattro??

What's up everyone? Newbie here! I'm getting rid of my 02 Acura TL Type S and am picking up an A4 (hopefully). The local Audi dealer here has nothing but quattros in stock. I was hoping for a 1.8T, without quattro. Will that be hard to find? Should I just sack up and get the quattro?

Also, how much are the Audi dealers moving off of MSRP? I want an A4 1.8T with the Premium, Sport, Bose, and Xenon packages...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Default Quattro is like having 2 women instead of one...

Sometimes a drag when you want to go really really fast, but awesome when your getting down and dirty ;-)

Quattro is the reason to buy an Audi.

Default Quattro is like driving insurance... Most of the time you don't need it...

But when you do it makes it all worth it.

Things to note without Quattro: better gas mileage, when replacing a worn tire you don't have to worry about tire wear (as much). (i.e. w Quattro you are more likely to replace 4 tires instead of just two like you could with FWD cars.) Resale is less, people buy Audis for Quattro. Used FWD 1.8t are a harder sell.
