Don't listen to them OP, don't turn to the dark side! Get the 6mt, I'm telling you after a good solid week behind the wheel you'll be fine. Hills may take a little more time to master.

I wouldn't want to sit in ****** up traffic jam in a 6mt all day long every day. I'd freak out lol

I wouldn't get the nismo in auto. I like my 7at but getting the nismo in at would be a no-no for me.

plus with the rjm clutch adjustment (from what I hear) makes a huge difference.

RJM makes a huge difference.

In terms of the weight argument. The AT still gets better MPG and 0-60, and since that extra ~50lbs is low in the car and centered it won't hurt handling that much. I just go with MT because I'm a purist snob haha. Never driven an AT 370Z but I've heard good things!

You would have to go to the dealership and order one would be my guess.

Not going to lie learning to drive a 6MT was somewhat annoying at first because of where I live. All stop and go traffic, and then the NJ turnpike at 6pm is ridiculous. But after a couple of months it really becomes second nature. At first I was regretting it but now I don't even think about it. I say get the 6mt. You'll pick up rather quickly as most do. They say once you own a MT you never go back.

**** it all buy a 6mt and never look back no regrets. Don't waste your months of learning to drive a stick. You did it for a reason, you wanted to be a better person.
