First of all, search feature


Second, it depends, if you're going forced induction...
If you are, you MIGHT get more issues with Auto...

For regular driving, Nissan can't make a manual, synchros such CSC sucks, and the pedal feel is non existent... (Although you can change that)

IMO, this is THE best Auto I have driven aside from Lamborghini/Ferrari, better than Bentley


And go for a test drive in both...

Figure out your TOTAL mods...

If you're going to change the LSD, you might want to go with manual as well

+1.... I've driven Ferrari's, Lambos, GTR, etc, and other cars with DCT's and for a non DCT it is pretty damn responsive and not to mention epic down shifts with a nice exhaust. I'm absolutely happy with it and its a very unique auto transmission which provides a full manual feel with no restrictions in manual mode with the paddle shifts. And when I want to cruise throw it in D and your set. I say go for the Auto.

Manual vs. Auto performance

370z auto vs manual

auto vs. manual 370z

6 Speed Manual or 7 Speed Automatic?
