Back on topic, if I were to do it again I'd probably go with the 7AT....It is really an excellent transmission and nothing to be embarrassed about.. If that choice compromises your manliness, then you have more problems than the car can cure...
Well said Mod, I have the 7AT and auto in the Max.....no regrets at all. My mom is 63 years old and still rolls her 83 280ZX (excellent shape) 5spd manual that she has had since new.
