I have never liked any automatic I have owned (probably my G20 has my least favorite automatic. It died once already, lol).

I figured I would give the 370Z a fair shake so I went and test drove it.

I didn't like it. Not that it was bad, I just did not like it at all. I will get the 6-speed. I was hoping I would like the 7A because it would be easier to get a loaded out 370Z in 7A because thats how most of the loaded cars are ordered in the US.

My main complaint was the lag-time between hitting the paddle and the transmission reacting when in manual mode when not going WOT. Is the delay a big deal? Probably not. It just irked me. I fully admit it is probably a personal bias against it.
