This question comes up more than what time of oil should i use. I wish the mods would just add a big sticker to the entry page of this site. 370Z is a sports car, so make sure it's a MT.

So...all the next lamborghinis wont be sportscars?

I personally find the whole MT=sportscar thing kinda stupid these days.

These arent slow sluggish gearboxes anymore. The only difference these days is that you cant stall(good thing) and that you don't move a stick around but use pedals on the steering wheel/tiptronicish stick(I actually don't know how they call that type of shifting these days).

I personally still prefer MT because of the whole going WOT slam the next gear. It feels awesome. but I then again prefer the downshifting with the AT. I know the syncro does the same but with the AT its so quick.

Especially whenever I get to drive the GT-R now THAT is a proper AT
