The 4 speed models do have tiptronic function too. As far as I'm aware, the only D2 models that didn't have tip were some of the early US models. The S8 gearbox has longer ratios but only the 2002 models have an actual 'sport mode' on the gearbox, all it does as far as I know is hold the revs longer and although it's nice to have and I've driven a few S8 models with it. I wouldn't let it sway my buying decision as you have tip anyway.
