Default What should I do

Im looking at trading my car in for a newer Trans Am. Im looking at a 2001 T/A WS6 A4. I really like the car but the A4 is where Im leaning away from it. I really like my M6, is there any difference in quickness between the two? Ive allways heard that a M6 is faster than A4's. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx

The M6 is faster, until you put a stall conveter in the A4, then they will run side by side.



This topic has kinda been beaten to death, just do a search.

It depends if you are planning on running at the track alot then an a4 with a converter and gears would be more accurate, unless your an a+ driver with a stick, however the stick car is alot more fun on the street, I had an a4 before my 6speed and I wish I had the a4 for the track and the 6speed for driving around town.

From a stop the M6 will be slightly faster stock for stock, year for year, assuming the M6 driver is very good; if the driver sucks, then it will be killed by the A4.

From a highway roll, stock for stock, the M6 will dominate significantly.

I second that! But M6's are way more fun to drive on the streets
