I wasn't really into cars until I started driving 370z.
Now that I really got into speed and everything, I'm thinking about starting tuning my car.

But shoot it's an automatic.

Not saying it's a problem and I know very well about pros and cons about auto and mannual, but I really want a mannual 370z.

Also i'm not saying you can't tune the automatics at all, but there is a limit.

So I ended up thinking about selling my current Z and buy a mannual one.
My family and friends are think that I'm the biggest idiot but hell I wanna drive what I wanna drive right?

What do you guys think?
This reminds me of a guy at a GM dealership telling me that his friend has a new Camaro that runs 10's. It was "turned up all the way."

I think you need to go back to the drawing board.

If you want a manual because you think it's more fun, get one, but if your reason is solely because of mod-friendliness. Meh.

That quote sounds very Spinal Tap worthy.

OP it ultimately comes down to your finances. If you're going to lose any kind of significant amount of money, and feel it, stick with the AT. You're most likely going to have to go down a year and/or lose some options to come out even

In a serious note, OP one option could be to see if you could do a trade with another forum member willing to swap. If you are to go through the dealership, they will likely have you trade the car in at a loss.
