But shoot it's an automatic.

Not saying it's a problem and I know very well about pros and cons about auto and mannual, but I really want a mannual 370z.

Also i'm not saying you can't tune the automatics at all, but there is a limit.

So I ended up thinking about selling my current Z and buy a mannual one.
My family and friends are think that I'm the biggest idiot but hell I wanna drive what I wanna drive right?

What do you guys think?
I think that while costly, it is worth it. Every time I see an A/T I think of the car as near totaled.

I am restoring a classic car with an automatic - Yuck. I am seriously contemplating a $5000 4 speed conversion kit, plus installation. I just do not know how reliable this set up will be or if it includes the clutch.



Not mine but same color and model. Mine is 80% or more, of this.
