Default A6 convert to M6?

I was wondering what the price range would be to change from an auto to a manual? Wish I’ve done the manual when I ordered it 4yrs ago but I never own a manual until I bought a winter car and love it.

Hate to buy a new or used car because I’ve done allot of fun track events with this C6.

Thanks

Everybody is going to tell you that it's WAY cheaper and easier to trade your car up to a manual car.

If you do change your car to a manual the car will be tough to sell and you will loose the money you have in it now plus the price of the change over.

You are way better off just selling out and moving on to a manual.
