Manuals are much more fun unless you live in a area and work a job where you are guaranteed to be stuck in stop and go traffic TWICE daily for 45-60 minutes each.

I originally wanted a manual but my A4 Vert was a deal to good to be passed up. I am so happy I don't have a manual now. Would have been impossible to drive after my knee surgery.

I still love manuals..... I just don't want to drive one to work.

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the forum!! I also own a triple black Vert, mines an 88.
