Tuned autos are a third of second faster stock and about 2/3 of a second faster tuned and lightly modded. The Z manual lacks a little in the overall manual experience. It's no stick from a bimmer, mazda, honda fa sure. imho, the z is one car where the auto and manuals are toss ups with equal pros and cons.
