Check this clip out. The answer is dont get a AT unless you don't mind the reduction in power.

I drove both when I had a test drive sadly the moronic salesman didnt point out to me that the 04' A/T only had a 4 speed and the one I was driving a 06 had the 6 speed. There is a difference you can feel. Its not night and day.. more like Night and dusk. If your only limited by A/T choice and not by money choose the 06 for the 6 speed will most likely have more fun.

I've already got a 4 speed AT. Just wondering if it is worth upgrading to the 6 speed AT. Doesn't sound like it would be worth the cost. I'm guessing I'd be better off spending the difference on FI.

I test drove the AT6 speed and it is a bit quicker than the AT4 speed. Unfortunately, I did not feel it was enough to make me trade up at this time. However, once the warranty is up on my 04 I'll probably trade it in on the 6 speed AT.
Keep in mind that my 8 is primarily used as a go to and from work car and a fun to drive weekend grocery runner. I would get the 8MT if I did not already have a moded FD ,and if I used the 8 more for spirited driving.
