I admit I haven't driven one, but I have been in a 5.2 manual on a track day. Once the novelty of being in a supercar wore off it wasn't as exciting as the 430 I had just been in was. The Audi would win in all the objective categories against the F430 (it felt a hell of a lot faster), it looses in the subjective categories. It didn't feel like we were on the edge and about to kill our selves like the Ferrari did, and when we did reach the edge in the Audi we just kind of went wide. The Audi is a great car Im not trying to say it isn't its just not as exciting as its RWD competitors.
