Auto vs manual
 
So I think I hav finally made my decision and am going to start looking for a 01 a4 2.8 . The only thing I can't decide is what trans to get. I know the auto is significantlly slower than the manual but I'm afraid I'll get tired n annoyed with the manual. Also, if I decide I want to go to DePaul ( college in Chicago) then there is the possibility that I take the car with me and I know manual sucks in the city. ( I'll only take the car with me if I get an off campus living space that has a garage or a small gated parking area) what would you guys do?

I've always loved manual transmissions. I feel like I'm more connected to the car when driving one, they're better on gas mileage, cheaper to buy, and pretty much just all-around cooler than automatics. However, now that I live in DC i really wish i had an auto-stick or some such thing. Driving a 5MT in DC traffic is like being waterboarded :-X

maybe technically INSIDE the audi as ive only had it for a few months... besides, sex in cars is not comfortable... me and my ex did it in her grand cherokee in front of the MP barracks back when i was in the army and it wasnt fun... not enough space to be creative haha
