I hate that, when people say stick is for the "cool guy"! They both have there high points and depending on driving preference you make your choice!

Not necessarily..Depends on how much power you have..My car in particular needs the good 60ft to run a good ET because I don't have a lot of power..I run a 4000 stall to maximize my power..a car with more power can run a hell of a lot lower stall....to each his own..I beat a Cobra with 500+ rwhp 3 out of 5 runs because he was missing shifts trying to catch up to me..from a roll he would destroy me, but I do most of my racing on the strip oh yeah, I have 335rwhp

A4 for consistency.

a4 for the track would deffinatly be easier. but for me, shifting gears never gets old. it may not be as fast but i think its more fun. and it gives my left foot something to do so it doesnt fall asleep.

I love my 4400 stalled auto. Wouldn't trade it for anything, and I have smoked plenty of 6 speeds from a roll as well.

M6!

I converted my '95 Impala SS to an M6 six years ago and never looked back.

m6 for the street but the strip is way better with an auto unless you really know how to drive.

I voted M6, but in reality, if a beefy A6 was built. Id consider it superior over any of these choices and Id actually like to have one... But I still would always love a manual. and then Id alternate daily...

I have a M6 and I am going with the 4l80E because I am not consistent driving the 6speed.
