Default i think the leatherette is BETTER than the leather

it has all the benefits of leather, it looks and feels like leather...AND IT WILL LAST A LOT LONGER THAN LEATHER!

Default leatherette DOES NOT look and feel like leather ....

leather looks much richer/nicer. Also, leather does not make you sweat as much.

Default Its not about being better or not. I'm just wondering why a 30k+ car doesn't even have a leather

option. Even the beetle has a leather option.

I have seen the leatherette, and I have to admit it looks real, but my sister has been sitting on fake leather for sometime now and she specifically told me that she wants real leather this time.

Also the reason she wants the 6spd is because she doesn't like it when your at 60mph, your already at 3k rpm and your at 70mph, your close to 4k rpm. Just revving too high for her(and for me as well, with my TT).

Default The 1.8T is supposed to be the "entry level" A4, hence not all the goodies...

are available.

They want people to go for the more expensive 3.0.

Same thing with the 6-speed tranny - only on the 3.0, isn't it?
