anyone who is doing that is gambling with his/her car paintjob.

imo, it is better to get a dent which can be removed cheaply than to get keyed

Nice.

But I honestly don't understand why people who never drove stick just end up buying a sports car.

I had to learn how to drive manual with a clio.

Well I never drove anything but manual untill my 370

Its easy

mick

since you're from belgium, it is like this:
driving a 370z automatic is like watching justine henin plays.
driving a 370z manual is like playing tennis and dreaming that you are justine henin

Vegitto-kun

to be honest they should just force everybody going for their license to drive manual. if they want easy driving later they can go AT.

well here if you do your exam in AT you arent allowed to drive manual or you have to retake the test with a manual

I had to take my driving test in an MT because it's all my family had.

As for the MT on the 370Z..I found it really easy (and fun) to drive, but ultimately went with the 7AT because my husband bullied me into it (traffic..coffee...yadda yadda yadda...)

Enjoy!

The AT isn't a horror since you can still use the flappy pedals + tecshift stick

I think AT sports cars are kind of silly and I wouldn't want one. But theres nothing wrong with someone liking a car and wanting to buy one if they can't drive MT. The only lame thing is when people with automatics talk about their drag times or some chump they beat in a race from a traffic light b/c they didn't really do anything except press the gas and hold the wheel straight.

I just find it funny when people say they can't drive stick, yet they CAN talk on their phone and text message while they drive.

some sports cars only come in automatic - i think it's fair to let them drag race their car and talk about it.

i find it funny how, when i go to the track, the initial competition is about who can get a faster time. then when i spank everyone up, the haterade bottles open up because i have an automatic. it's mostly from the kids with the cheaper/slower cars. when i beat cars that i think should've won, i recommend working on their stick-shift skills. nothing but cry babies here in miami. i know how to drive stick, but i prefer automatic for my daily driver. we're all pressing the gas and holding the wheel straight, i just chose to pay $1200 to achieve perfect quick shifts every time and to choose stick or auto depending on my mood.

i'm still a man and it's still a sports car.

to the op: enjoy the new car, man! the 40th anniversary model looks awesome.

Congrats and Enjoy

I can drive stick, talk, text, change the radio station and flip someone off all simultaneously, i'd like to see some of you try that!

I used to drive stick while smoking a cigarette and holding my ez-pass up to windshield through tolls!
