All the exotics i.e. Ferrari, Lambo are phasing out manuals. Doesn't this portend to something?

Albeit I drive a manual, a manual is to VHS as a automatic nowadays is to Blueray.

Retort: Professional athletes and CEO's don't know how to drive manuals and Danica Patrick is a Indycar driver. I'm not sayin, I'm just saying. They got me to use a computer, I'll be damned if they get me to drive an AT. Better, Faster or otherwise........ THIS IS AMERICA DAMMIT.

Actual the anaglogy you want is VHS v. DVD, Blu-ray is just higher quality DVD with no extra gains (maybe online connectivity but that can be found in DVD also).

At the quoted line, this is not for the AT v. 6MT debate, but those companies have also spent millions on perfecting the technology. Now Nissan has been working just as hard, and has made a 7AT that I myself almost bought, but there is a rather large difference between what Ferrari/Lambo are doing and what Nissan is doing with the automatics. Will Nissan be there? Someday, but not today.

Just so I don't get flamed when I go to bed (I get nightmares and cold sweats). My favorite person on this thread drives a 7AT. It's ALL GOOD, either way you go. I'm just doing a little late night rabble-rousing.

Anecdote: When I was a kid and I was emulating driving, making engine noise with my mouth, you know with the vrrrmm.... vrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, vrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I always had both hands on the make believe steering wheel.
