how is that even relevant? exhaust sound is exhaust sound.

the fact that there's no long pause between loud and loud because you MT boys suck at rowing gears doesn't change the fact of what is happening.

man, this may be your most asinine comment thus far or just a super poor troll attempt.

you MT boys really need to shake off the rust and come back tomorrow to try again.

lol, I just don't understand all the hate is all. I've driven the new C7 7-speed manual and I would drive that all day! However, if you're SOLELY looking at track times and quarter miles,etc...of course a computer will be faster!

I think the real argument should be based on what you do more and if you enjoy rowing your own gears or would rather just have a cheeseburger in one hand

it's not hate. re-read some of above comments and see I have said this is to kill time and have fun throughout the day. the hate is just our way of showing love for each other lol

anyways.....the MT is a dinosaur of a tranny and the new AT's and DCT's of today's supercars/sports cars is the way to go. I mean if they weren't superior then why is the MT barely even an option in supercars?

yes rowing gears and messing about is fun but not for long.

TBF, in auto mode, after market exhaust sounds cheesy.

A DCT though. Sounds amazing. And those perfect shifts with that pop and fireball.

I hear the big stick boi's like pulling their pants down and bouncing up and down on the stick after a long drive....

This is just my humble opinion. I learned how to drive a stick way before most of you were born, a 4 speed 1967 Ford falcon on the floor, got my CDL license and drove a 21 gear truck so i learned how to drive and not just aim a car. The only vehicle I owned that was an auto was a 2010 FJ Cruiser that the wifey fell in love and the standards were not available in my area. Loved the truck but i found myself falling asleep on the way home just about every day because I felt I was just aiming the thing. So I went back to stick and now I'm driving again. I know wherever you live or whatever you choose is personal preference for you and your driving style, but I will never own another automatic. Wifey has 2014 Rogue fully loaded and works from home has 3k miles and I only drive it to fill up the tank, groceries with her or in 10 feet of snow. but as a daily driver maybe if my Z is getting some work done, so carry on maybe we can add some politics or religion to this tread to add fuel to the fire....

I saw a video of this chick actually doing that and found it hot, hopefully she didn't damage the gears as I couldn't tell if it was her or the gears grinding, google it I bet you will watch it ...don't believe everything you hear
