Default lol 6k m6 swap...?

I sold out, even after experiencing a stall I still want to drive a stick again. So I talked to a shop around here (a good rep one too) about swapping out my A4 to an M6. '02 SS Camaro and told me to buy a new car lol.

Now I appreciate them not just sayin sure and tryin to rob me blind but he explained after getting the 6 speed, replacing the crossmember, pedal assembly, labor, etc etc. it would be around $6,000.

That was for a stock T56!! I didnt even get around to telling him that I wanted an upgraded 6 spd that could handle close to 700 rwhp.

Thoughts?

edit: Oh yea im not buying a new car... its not stock

my brother bought a used t56 to put in his camaro on these boards for 700 and it was in good working order. i can imagine you can get the rest of the stuff for under 2k. so id say wait and find someone that wants to switch with you.
