isnt the m3 manual? you'll have to learn to drive that...im not hating on audis, but id keep the m3. An m3 is an m3 no doubt.

 

manuals are easy to learn. youll have it down in a weeks time and will love driving it. autos are just boring to drive IMO.

 

The wheels are not exactly the best reason to choose a car. Buy something else and get the rims for $1000 used. It's a much cheaper option :P

 

You sound like you are pretty set up for a 16 year old. But i would definitely learn how to drive a stick if your into the sports cars. And a B5 S4 is only a fast car if you want it to be. You dont have to drive it fast. But when you get used to driving it and wanna have that power there you will. If you are just driving around town it will drive no different than an A4. Well good luck.
