my buddy in his Vette has a six-speed. When I was driving it, I didn't even use 6th but once, and when I did, he said it wasn't very useful. The only time he is able to use it is on the Queen-E doing 80+ heading to TO. Otherwise, the gearing is off and barely spinning in 6th on the highway.
Yes, this is the point of the 6th gear, but to pass or move at all, one would have to really downshift to get by. So unless it is the Audi's dual six, and, as mentioned, you are driving a 400+hp monster (wasn't even useful in the 350hp Vette), the gearing would need to be properly adjusted to run the six-speed effectively.
Besides, for the cost, you could probably get yourself well into the 300hp range! Good luck.
