"Go with the manual"...said in quick response (and some enthusiasm as in oh yeah gotta go with the manual) when I mentioned I was waffling between auto and manual. I think she actually slipped because I was driving the only used Aero they had and it was an auto...pretty hard to make that sale after that comment.
Second dealership salesman said the same thing...fortunately for him...we were driving a Manual Aero. Now it's mine :)
That's 2 salepeople, who were obviously driving enthusiasts based on their tone and the way they talked about the cars, that recommended manuals over autos.
Ironically...they both drove manual A4's. Not sure what that's about.
