i have my audi in a 5 spd. i love it and would never trade my 5 spd for a auto. The shift is very easy and takes little effort once u know when to shift. I would highly recomeend a manual unless u eat, drink or talk on the phone. If u do u wont like a stick. They are for people that like to drive!

Well said agp96, my thoughts exactely. The A4 was made to be driven with a manual. If you have all wheel drive, the thrill of downshifting into a corner and flooring it cannot be matched with a tiptronic and it is a beautiful thing...
