You drove the zonda F?

lucky. the zonda cars are pretty much my favorite cars out there.

I would give my left leg if it would mean I could drive any zonda.

But if you give your left leg you'd have to drive a AT Zonda......which is slow, sluggish, detached, etc..... I kid I kid!! :bowrofl::tup:

Also, in the interest of Manual vs Auto: I will take an E-gear Gallardo or Murcielago over the Manual counterpart any day of the week. I am a firm believer of Sports Car = MT. However, the Italians with their silly gated shifter can make even me wish for the E-gear.

not according to these guys :ughdance::ugh2:

Not another MT v. AT argument :facepalm:

I will admit the 7A/T in the 370z is very good, but I will never buy another automatic car again. I will be getting a short shifter for the Z this year I think, it will definitely help the somewhat rubbery and imprecise shifting of the 6MT.

I love feeling that I am getting the most power to the ground in the most direct manner possible, along with the fact that the 6MT can handle much more power reliably and is not as prone to overheating in spirited/track conditions.

NYBladeZ 02-20-2011 12:42 PM

The only thing that worries me about short shifters is that it could actually really screw up the transmission. I'll never forget that when I installed a Pro 5.0 shifter on my 2004 Mustang GT, which was done professionally, I was told after the tranny went that short shifters screw up tranny over time.

What?!? I have the auto and with the F.I. exhaust..I love the way it roars when I downshift with the paddles :excited: I can't compare it to the manual, but it can't sound that much different, can it? :confused:

I'll guess I'll stir the pot a bit and put in my 2 cents.

6MT 370Z = more fun, takes more skill to drive fast
7AT 370Z = seems to be quicker with the average driver

IIRC, #1, #3, #4, #8 spots are 6MT. :stirthepot:
