Audi’s contender in the entry-level luxury sport sedan segment has a tough play to make in a space that's packed with competition from the likes of Mercedes and BMW. Does the new Audi A4 hold its own against a recently redesigned C-Class and BMW’s 3 Series? Cars.com reviewer Kelsey Mays finds a few reasons why the A4 deserves serious attention from car buyers looking to enter the luxury sedan market.
When I go into "Build your Audi" I cannot build one with a manual transmission. Any reason why?

This car looks very good but the V6 is way too expensive. They have really moved into BMW territory with the pricing.

LM,
Either it's not available as of now or they made a booboo on their website.

I agree with Sheth. The V6 is way too pricy for the category. Just thin about it for a second...
Both the Mercedes C class and BMW 3 class start around 33000 WITH a V6. The A4 STARTS at 40000 with a V6.
I was just at the dealer yesterday and they had a loaded 3.2 A4. The sticker stunned me at 52,540.00! Thats BMW 5 and Mercedes E class territory.
