Play your cards right and the ladies will be all over you when you tell them that your manual 370Z gets several mpg more on the highway than the automatic version.

I don't know dude... I find it hard to multitask when you have to worry about shifting gears. Automatic transmission is a lot more convenient and less hassle if you have to multitask when driving.

I would go through and call out each post but come on guys just because you are on the internet doesn't mean you can just shoot stuff out your butt.

He walks up and asks her if she wants to go for a ride. He says he knows how to drive a stick...

She says he is in the wrong Bar..

But he says it is a Manual..

She says "His name is Manual" ??
