Default Which would be better performance wise?

2002 Turbo x50 Tiptronic vs. 2004 Cab 6 speed (non x50)?

Would the better performing 6 speed make up for the lack of x50?

First question...what do you mean by performance? Both cars stock? If you mean HP and TQ the the x50 has it. If you mean picking up chicks..the cabby has it (that aught to bring some flames).

I would pick the car that you want and in this comparison it is not performance but do you want a stick and do you want a cab. The performance difference I dont think would make a difference because you could easily mod either to what ever performance you desire.

Haha. Yes, stock. I mean acceleration (0-60), handling, etc.

It's not worth worrying about anyway. The dealer thinks their car is worth more than market and mine is worth less than market. $112K for a 2004 Cab and $70K for a 2002 x50 Coupe.
