Yahoo! review on the A4
Well only from the autoshow. Jet Jockey posted this <a href="http://autos.yahoo.com/articles/frankfurt_auto_show_2007/232/Audi-A4/;_ylc=X3oDMTFhcTVtM2kyBF9TAzI3MTYxNDkEc2VjA2ZwLXB1 bHNlBHNsawNuZXdyZWxlYXNlcy1hNA--">link</a> but what concerns me is this and I hope it's wrong information....
"A 6-speed manual transmission is available with either engine, while the four will come with a Dual Shift Gate (DSG) gearbox, and the V-6 will offer a conventional 6-speed automatic with Tiptronic sequential shift."
DSG only for the 2.0T? If you recall Johan De Nysschen mentioned that only the stick shift would be available with their sportier version of the A4, so that meant the S4/RS4. Well a bunch of us left a message with AOA about this and Johan later retracted his statement and that stick shift would be available on all their cars.

I'd be OK with a AWD DSG in the 2.0T. It would be Stasis-fied immediately. Their
BabyR8(TT DSG) is SWEET! But if it's not AWD, then I'd go with 6spd, which I'm SURE they'll have in the 2.0T. And they are saying that the manual will come with the V6 AND 2.0T, BUT if you want auto, the 2.0T will be DSG and the V6 will be conventional Tip.
