Drove Audi A4 1.8T

So my dads friend came over with his audi 6 speed. i asked him if i could drive it. i've never driven a 6 speed before, just 5 speeds. it was really nice i liked it alot. great acceleration, and i really like short gearing. its obviously quite the step up from my slow a$$ ex auto. its 170 horsepower, and i never have driven a turbo before, so it was awesome hearing the whistle of it. still not as fast as my parents audi a6 4.2 quattro, but still fun. anyone else have experience with 6 speed cars like this? i just had to share cuz i love manual's, and wish i had one.

Stachmo is an unknown quantity at this point
yeah, when my dad bought an s2000...it made me depressed when I hopped back into my civic, because only then did I realize how truly slow our cars really are (and I have 5-spd, I could only imagine auto)

I love driving his car...so much faster. I love how you can run all the way up to 9000rpms and how it sounds once you pass 6000...ugh *sends shivers down my spine*

Drove a 6 speed tiptronic SMART fortwo car, most annoying drive ever, the tach is in the middle of the dash and is like 2 inchs, spent more time looking at my rpms than anything else. You have to pay an extra $800 to get the "smart touch automatic" button.
