Confessions of a 7AT Driver

Tazicon

Buddy if you are that insecure with your man hood you have issues. Most exotic sports cars these days are autos. I love my PDK in my Porsche. Lambos and Farraris even the GTR everyone on here so worships is an auto. Get with the times or move over. On the Porsche the auto is lighter and its a good margine faster then the manual. My Z is a 7AT because I hated, and I do mean hated the 6MT in the Z. Even my 1978 Datsun B210 had a better MT than the Z's do today.

Sadly, this is true.

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.
