[OFFICIAL] Manual v. Automatic Thread

mhcoss · 06-06-2012, 04:42 AM

I got a MT 370z and love it! I know that the auto is slightly faster but to me it just can't replicate the driving experience. The pleasure I get from doing a perfect pull through the firs 4 gears merging on the the highway can't be described. As you know it takes time to really master an individual car on manual transmission. Every car behaves a little bit differently. Or maybe thats just my shitty manual abilities. Traffic or hills are not an issue for me, I don't even notice the clutch and stick work I am doing while in bumper to bumper traffic.

Personally I think the skill and attention required for manual driving is a bit higher then automatic hence my choice for manual transmission. With that said to each his own.
