Default a4 manual vs auto

i just ditched my manual and picked up a a4 auto matic. same year. seems like the automatic is more agile seems more nimble where my manual was clunkier when turning and steering. is there a reason for this?

Driver error.... seriously why though? I've never met an automatic transmission that I would take over a manual.

That is odd. Usually cars with a manual trans tend to be more sporty feeling.

Probably just something up with your other car.
