Better for what? - that is not really a well constructed question

Default I think the answer is obvious....
An automatic/tip is the practical choice...but if you want to be practical get an A4.

The S4 is special. When you get right down to it you're paying extra for the additional HP, turbos, performance, and excitement. Even never having driven a manual transmission the answer was easy: stick.
