Auto or Manual?

theWeezL · 05-24-2006, 11:40 PM

I wont even look at a car if its an automatic. To me it takes half the fun out of driving.

There is nothing more satisfying than a proper heal/toe maneuver, blipping the throttle on a down shift while at the same time mashing down on the binders, as you carve your way to the apex of a nice tight corner...getting that perfect mesh of guts and gears and growl...forget priceless...its epic.

Tell me again why you are even thinking about an automatic?

Go with the manaul tranny, its much more fun to drive. It will be worth the extra money. Like someone else here said, I wouldn't even look at a sports car with an automatic. I feel they shouldn't even make them.
