so you're still insecure about getting the AT. lol :rofl2:

At times I'd much rather have a C-drive car.











C being a chauffeur.

:rofl2:

sounds like my neighbor down the street with a big jag. while he's the owner of the car, he looks more like a hired driver for someone else. lol :D

This I agree with completely. I've been back on the market looking for a 6MT lately and thought about ditching the auto entirely. I drove yet another manual the other day and guess what... I still have my 7AT. Honestly, I just don't feel the torque in the manual. I don't really feel anything. I'm a damn good driver in a manual but there was something inherently wrong. In the 7AT, obvously I feel like something is missing but at least it doesn't feel wrong. So I think I may stick with it after all. But if I do rebel, I'll let you know. :tup:

As you get older, insecurities are less of a problem to a point you don't care what other people think. As I drive my automatic 370z around town and other cars (civics, mustangs, camaros, BRZs, etc).... they wish they drive mine instead... judging from the stares.

Oh, and by the way... did I mention I trapped 13.57 in the 1/4 mile at 105.17? Bone stock? Pretty much right on target with the advertised reports. I think I'm good with my auto.

i did this with my toyota highlander before i got the Z
people looked confused LOL

When you get to a certain age, you could care less what people think....That is true freedom...

I thought i was the only one. Thank goodness.

I drive a manual. I love driving manual cars.

If anyone wants to drive an automatic, for reasons that suit them, then that's all gravy.

The Z is an excellent car with either transmission. I loved mine, and I'm sure auto drivers love theirs.

Life's too short to care about what other people drive lol

How many of you would pass on this car cause it's an auto? ...........I sure wouldn't

HowStuffWorks "Why did the 1966 Shelby Cobra sell for $5.5 million?"

I wouldn't pass on it because it's an auto. I'd pass on it because it costs as much as all the other cars I want combined and it's too valuable to drive. It's pretty much a museum piece. That being said, that is so ******* cool.

Actually I would pass on any Auto old school Muscle car, unless it was for the 1/4 mile only..

I have owned Muscle cars since 1976 and a stick is the only way to road course the cars...Auto matics hesitate on downshift and then suddely lock the rear tires...They are primative Treansmissions and only a stick with heel to toe driving is the way to safely race road courses, IMO...On older Muscle cars only..

Sadly, this is true. :ugh2:

Having owned a '77 B210, and a string of Hondas and Acuras with manual transmissions, I was really surprised with the clutch engagement on the 6MT. I purchased a 7AT mainly because it was my DD and I commute in Houston.

Since getting another DD, I wish I had the 6MT, be it an Acura transmission.

Forget the shenanigans, and enjoy your car. At 19 years-old, you have plenty of time to try a manual at some point.
