Default CVT vs Quattro 2008 A6

What is the difference in performance? I am about to lease an A6. Live in Florida and was told by two dealers that quattros are almost non existent in Florida.
Thanks.

But can't you custom order them just like those in other states ?

Default Stick with the CVT/FronTrak configuration

Advantages
Less $$$ up front
Car is a 176 pounds lighter
Better MPG
In Florida, AWD's traction advantage isn' fully exploited

Default Get the Quattro

I'm in Jacksonville and I would only buy a Quattro.
The dealer had FWD's at a much cheaper price but it was the Quattro or nothing. You yourself know about the massive monsoons we get in the "sunshine state". Nothing is better in bad weather. Check out Crown Audi in Clearwater.
