    Audi Drops Manual Option for 2019 A4 and A5

      Hurry now!

    For a time, you could order an Audi A4 or A5 with a manual transmission at no-cost. But that option will be going away when the 2019 models begin arriving at dealers.

    Car and Driver reports that low demand for the option has Audi pulling off the option sheet. Audi points out that only five percent of U.S. buyers picked an A4 with a manual transmission. The news isn't that surprising as more automakers are dropping them due to low demand and automatic transmissions returning better fuel economy figures.

    If you really want to get your hands on an A4 or A5 manual, you might want to hurry to your nearest Audi dealer. Car and Driver says there is still a sizable amount in inventory.

    Everyone else has none. Such choices. :P  

    In a 100 mile radius from where i live there are 16 manual A4s and 9 A5s.

    I wonder what are the chances of them being sold, A4 in premium trim doesn't strike me as car a manual driving enthusiast would buy.

    Agree, I suspect you will find manual enthusiast looking to pick up a deeply discounted model come the end of this year. I would not be surprised to see 10K plus off to move these auto's as there are so few people who drive a manual now.

    • These idiots are too stupid to understand that Tariff Turd47 has destroyed any desire for people to come here and spend their hard-earned money. Far better places to visit around the globe where your money will go farther. I have noticed how bad it has become at Home Depot with terrible service, no knowledge by those that do work there plus their founder, chairman, CEO is a Tariff Turd47 Lover, as such I have moved my business to Lowe's and the shopping experience is much better. These kinds of Idiots no longer get my business. Home Depot’s Ken Langone ‘Sold On Trump’ After Tariff Criticism Key Facts Langone, 89, told CNBC he has “never been more excited about the future of America” than he is right now, and that, “like it or not, this guy is getting things done.” He praised Trump’s strike on Iran as “miraculous” and said the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” has “a lot of merit” and will trigger significant economic growth. He told CNBC in 2024 he was afraid Trump would spend the next four years “getting even,” but reversed his position on Tuesday, saying, “I’m happy to say, I’m comfortable he’s not doing that.” Langone said “people are walking with more bounce” and, when asked about his previous criticisms of Trump, said, “when you make a mistake, admit it.” Clearly this IDIOT is only talking with other Billionaires and is clueless to how bad this country has become.
    • 7 people arrested and yet the Jewelry is still missing, crazy. The fact that the DNA evidence was in a database would imply that either the people are already criminals from the past or France is tracking DNA of people even though they say DNA testing is illegal in France. Very interesting, will be more so to see if they actually recover the jewelry, I suspect it is already melted down, diamonds cut and gone forever.
    • WE are going to go into deeper and deeper decline.  UPS is cutting good union jobs and hiring subcontractors, as union busting is more legally possible now.  I am switching my love of cars to a love of cycling and hiking, and have been for a long time.  A used Subaru that can get either me, or me and my bike, to the nearest trail or backroad is all I ask.  Would trade my US citizenship for Canadian or Mexican, without question...or French, or Italian, or Scottish, or Irish, or Spanish, or German, or Polish, or Japanese, or any number of other countries.  We are an international embarrassment.  This is an interesting story. Want to visit the Louvre when i visit France.  The people who scream freedom the loudest are all about freedom until its their guy destroying freedom.  The Scion Xb, the original variant, and a Kia Soul had a love child, with some sort of birth defect.  I get to be like Olds Hurst and put up a music Video!
