i dont know about the auto, but i thought you could have 'better' control. ie do drifties around corners.

apparently the auto Z has the same 7-speed auto as the Mercedes Benz AMG C63. i've driven that car and the auto is excellent. i even think the paddles are the same as the MB.

I don't think our cars A/T is same as the AMG C63,that A/T is made by ZF,ours is by a Japanese make called Jatco,owned partly by Nissan.
