Really??? Why even comment is that's your response........ Your never too old to ask for advise. OP continue to ask the guys who don't mind helping or assisting you on your questions, that's what a forum is for..........isn't it?

Why am I commenting? Because there is 1000 threads on this stupid topic... why make a new one every day? Talk about

Half the posts are going to say buy the 7AT, the other half is going to say 6mt. So how is that assisting him? He is a big boy, doesn't need us to decide for him.

It's his first Z I would assume and maybe he's new to the forum??? Questions and topics are what keep forums running and treating a new owner like crap is not the way to go. Maybe he want to talk to actual members and not filter through old threads, you ever give that a thought?

The only reason i can think of that gets people asking whether they should buy manual or not is if they have never driven a manual before.

If you have never driven manual, you should buy a manual and learn it. You won't regret it, everybody should learn how to drive manual.

If you have learned how to drive manual and have driven that way for awhile you should know whether you want to continue to do so. Whatever other people say won't matter because you know what you like.

Most of my early cars were manual, I drive automatic now. I enjoy having my hands on the wheel and just cruising the road. YMMV.

My Z was my first manual. I drove a manual once on a u-haul and that was about 25 years ago. Then I had a motorcycle before i bought my Z but no real manual driving before. It's a year since I bought my Z and everything is fine and lots of fun.

The last time I drove a manual was maybe 7 years ago and I found it to be fun but I just had trouble starting in first lol, the manual would be my first choice but I am more just concerned about getting it home ha I know that I can learn it with time but I'm just nervous about the test drive and ride home ya know

Yes sir and the list grows. Last time I went I beat a Buick grand national, a 350z with nitrious twice, and a crossfire.
My best time so far is a 13.35 quarter mile and can post up time slips if you would like to see them.

I thought you were coming down to see me in that new viper or C7 since I have no one to talk to.
