Default Manual B7, are they hard to find on a dealer lot?

My lease on a 06 325i is expiring in a few months, and i am looking into getting an A4. Like the design better than the beemer, also the interior.
I had a hard time finding a 325 with a manual. Are the A4 Manuals also that hard to find? Thinking of the 2.0T, S-line, Manual, Titanum (so nice), guess i have to order that one...

Default well...

Yes and no. In my experience, it was fairly easy to find a A4 with manual tranny, BUT it was very hard to find a manual A4 with the options I wanted. A lot of the "luxury" options like navigation and bluetooth are usually not coupled with manual. If those are options that you're not looking to get, then it shouldn't be that hard. My dealer lot had 4 A4s with manual transmission with S-line package. Titanium package on the hand....

I got mine a few weeks ago, and my dealer had exactly ONE car with manual and the premium and convenience packages. He said they sell 9 automatics for every one manual.

That sounds easier then finding the 325i manual...What is the deal with the trunk lid spoiler on some A4's? The one that is actually very small and seems part of the trunk, is that a S-line deal as well?

I'll tell you that finding an A4 S-Line with Titanium and Manual tranny is tough. There are very few that come in 2.0T engine as far as I can tell. But this is just my experience...it was hard to find the color I wanted.

My dealer just by chance happened to have the exact combo I wanted in the showroom.

Default Yes, especially with higher end options...

I had to drive two states away to find my 06 3.2 MT6 with NAV, tech, premium, cold, etc. I wasn't particular with colors either. Took me about 2 months to find it.
