Well, I will say that, as an A4q 2.8 owner, the armrest is MUCH appreciated.  
Driving back to DC last nigh, girlfriend pushed the armrest up for SOME 
reason, then fell asleep blocking its travel path.  I SORELY missed resting my 
arm on it.  Any 1.8 T owner should retrofit a 2.8 armrest if possible.  
Chealer than more HP, but helps a lot.

Steve, thanks for an excellent post on the A4QT. I have already scrapped the
idea of getting a '93 S4
in favor of the '97 A4QT manual. Make it a Screaming Yellow, though!!! =8)

Even all these are a definite upside to me! As for the seats - two manual
Daytonas w/Shroth Rally 4 will go in the front. Can't wait....
