I severely doubt it, considering it is a tiptronic and a manual would be maybe a fraction of a second faster. I assure you, even at highest torque it has barely any power and I am frightened to death trying to merge onto the highway on a daily basis.
A tiptronic is not a DSG or anything, it just lets you go up and down through the gears without having the usual P-R-N-D-3-2-1 arrangement.
Edit: Actually, in the Beetle if it was the 6-speed thing, I believe it was a single clutch arrangement. A bit like an Alfa Selespeed gearbox, and they were horrible so I imagine a manual would still be better, even if not by much.
