For that segment of the auto market, where the typical buyer is 55-60 years
old, this is probably true.  But when you consider the overwhelming demand
for the BMW 540i with the 6-speed tranny (most dealers are asking for, and
getting, more than MSRP for them), it makes you think that *maybe* Audi will
offer the A6 4.2 with a 6-speed....would be nice...
