Whats an "Auto"? ;)
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

Nothing wrong with autos, having said that I prefer a manual but thats because they're more fun... and you know when they're going to change gear mid-corner

5 speed manual
would love the 6 speed though. is it possible to change it (easily) in the sw20?
if i had another car probably auto for town/traffic driving, not that i do a lot of that though
SW20, a work in progress for 2 years now, all i need to do now is work on it

Yea the guy who bought one of my silvias said that he had owned an automatic before hand ( i knew he was lying because when he drove my car he used his left foot for braking, man was he shocked when the car slowed down alot :roll:

Manual for my fun car, however new autos arent bad at all. My old mans got a Special edition 2006 RalliArt GSR Turbo, its auto/tip with paddle shift and its quite a nice box, if it senses your giving it a bit of a cane it adapts to your driving and ill hold your gear round corners and not downshift etc. etc, and shift more agressively as you drive more aggressively.

But I still perfer 3 pedals.
