[OFFICIAL] Manual v. Automatic Thread

Majestik · 03-30-2010, 12:25 AM

I've owned the 7AT and loved the auto but also missed driving manual so my replacement 370Z is a manual.
Let me ask you...
- Do you regularly travel in start/stop traffic in a manual and hate it everytime you do so? Then get the auto as you have the best of both worlds.

- Are you put off manual only cause of it's inability to take off smoothly but still love the control of having a manual? Then get the MT6 as the syncro-rev makes it an entirely different manual car to drive.

Sounds like a driver issue.

Ride around in my GF's automatic with her behind the wheel, you'd wish you were with me in my 6MT after all the jerkiness and senseless braking/accelerating! Hahaha!

I drove manual for years and after driving the auto 370z I gotta admit, I seriously can care less for the shifting. I can already shift with those paddle shifters and besides...The new GTR doesn't even come in manual and is push button start like the 370z + paddle shifting galore on both vehicles. Im glad they came out with the auto and definitely getting one as early as...this afternoon!
