i like the sound of the dsg for the s5 but i dont have that type of money! dont the new s4's have dsg paddles?

 

s4 has paddles, but they're linked to an automatic tranny. dsg is essentially a manual minus the clutch pedal.

 

oh i see, well then thats a tough descision, i can afford( barely mind you) a 2005 or 2006 used s4. i love the interior of it so much, and the paddles really are someything i like. any way to put paddles in a B5 s4? lol i bet im going to get alot of responses like wtf>? but im a noob!

 

Yes, you can put the paddles in the B5. All you need is the steering wheel (with paddles) & airbag.
I'm going to do it soon to my car, but the cost is a little high, around $900

 

geeze, that sounds really fun! so a manual B5 with paddles you still use the clutch obviously?

 

2k S4 is basically just replacing the tip buttons on the wheel, using the paddles on a new wheel instead. Keep in mind it will still be a automatic, not a manual meaning there is no clutch.

 

i think i want a new audi ( 2005 used obviously!) should i get manual( i dont know how to drive it) and learn or get auto with paddles?

 

Really, you need us to decide for you? Should we also take it on the test drive & make the deal with the salesman?

GET WAHT YOU WANT!

 

ha ha thats not what i meant! i meant like would it be smart to just get auto with the paddles or to get manual and learn off of that! sorry for the misunderstanding!

 

The 6-speed manual is the way to go in a performance car. If drive in traffic alot and are lazy about shifting, then the auto is great. If you ever noticed, all the motoring press always perfers to get a honest 6-speed manual and row through the gears when testing a performance car.
