My only gripes with automatic in the 370 is that
A. Technically not serviceable according to service manual (i.e. throw away part)
B. Automatics are evolving so fast the current one will be considered old tech soon.
C. Anyone can drive it
D. Can't take the power that a manual with an upgraded clutch can.
E. More expensive
F. For me; not nearly as fun as a manual. If the 370 is ur DD beater then AT makes sense, otherwise a waste.

I can see the auto as being useful in a very traffic jam prone city, but if you live anywhere with open roads/ low traffic it's a waste.
