3. Lots of hills here and people stop on your bumper at traffic lights. No room for roll back if I'm not on it from the get go.
1+2+3 = A6

Yes this car is “Aw sum” … to the max.
As for it being like sex… well, it’s better than some I’ve had but lets not go there.
It is one hell of a car. I’m still after-glowing and I only took a short test drive in a car that wasn't like what I'm getting.
Dang, not prying, but, did you two go have an offline fight...

lol j/k... Heres what it all boils down to... what are you going to enjoy driving... if it's auto, go for it... manual, go for that... i got a manual and love it, but that doesn't mean i wouldn't enjoy an auto... This car is just so bad a$$.. I'm still glowing and I haven't seen mine in over two weeks...

I've been in this argument with friends before, and it does boil down to what the person buying it wants... I know my wife bought a car she thought she really wanted, it had a manual transmission, and after two months , we traded it in and got an automatic and she loved it... It's just what the individual experiences and some put more emphasis on touch's like a manual, some put the emphasis on ease and comfort... It's still a Camaro a 2010 camro and an awesome car... V-6 V-8, manual or automatic...If I'm paying for it and what not, i would get it the way I wanted it, and I did...

when I was younger, pre marriage, i wanted an automatic so my hand was free for other things... now I want the manual so I don't have to do other things... lol...

Nope just an ongoing differance of opinion He just hasn't realized I'm as hard headed as he is. We'll agreed to disagree sooner or later.

For me the boil down is there would be times when I'd rather have M6. Like when I drive outside my local area. But there will be more times when I'd be glad I didn't have M6. Like I said.. If I lived outside this area... no problem.

How is driving an A6 being lazy?? It's more efficient at shifting than I'll ever be. Plus, if I really feel the need I can always tap shift. Tell ya what... you come here and drive, then tell me how much fun you have riding the clutch!

It.. Wasn't.. ME! My ISP was coughing up furballs and pages were timing out, or not loading completely. It was taking 3-4+ attempts to make a single post. Luv you guys, but there's only so much copy/paste I'm willing to do for y'all.

LOL... yeah. I sure didn't like that old Fiero for long. Once it hit 85-90 it would lose the pavement and steering got really ugly. I think I had it less than a year.
