Newbie: 2006 A4 2.0T Shopping - Manual or Auto (w/ Sport Shift)
Looking at the A4 Quattro 2.0T, wondering about drivetrain impacts. I have heard about acceleration lags with the manual 2.0T, does the auto suffer as well? Let me know if looking at the auto is a mistake. Thanks!
Also, any other advise would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: Drive both, if you like driving a manual, you wont pick the Tip.
One more question - Is the S-line package worth about 4K (6 spd, wheels, brakes, badging)? How rare is a '06 S-line 2.0T manual?

I think that A4 2.0T is better fitted with a manual, but dut to the fact that I plan on using mine
as a family sedan and share it with my soon to be wife, I really don't mind the automatic. If I didn't have the TT to play with, I'd probably have to have the stick in the A4. So essentially, I'm just looking for the right car and I'll be happy with either tranny.

Same, the tip A4 doesnt bother me, especially since theres always the TT to drive.
and iF i feel like i need to get on it when im in the A4, the paddle shifting is always fun.

Daily Driver = Auto. If not....MT
I have the Tip...that's where the LAG is. the only MT lag I have ever seen is user error ;-)
If I didn't drive stop and go backroads all the time I'd have the MT.
