@razioth Cars with DSG are incredibly fun to drive. Even driving a VW Golf with 1.4 TSI engine and DSG gearbox feel like driving a car from a computer game. Manuals are fun to drive sometimes, but most of the time they're pain in the ass. Try driving in some city with a manual car, driving for 100 meters, then stopping for a traffic light...and doing that on a 20 km's long stretch of road, and doing that every morning when going to work. Manuals are fun only when you're driving quickly.

@razioth Thats because the DSG makes it faster and more efficient. Sports car today dont need a manual, these arent the 70's. And yes, Audi is available with a manual.

@razioth Depends what you want. In a real proper sports car that would be used on a track, manual transmission is always more fun, but in every day situations, when driving normally, a automatic is much more relaxed to drive. There's no point having a manual in dense traffic when you driving like 40-50 km/h, or on opened roads where you constantly drive 100-110 km/h.
