on a AT car with power, you just step on it... sure that might be fun early
on, but im afraid it will bore me later. no input. just step on gas. 
im in no way comparing a fit to the is350. i got the fit as my winter
beater/grocery getter that the dumbarse general public can ding and hit and
i could careless about.  i bought the thing new cash with my allowance. |
Not the case in MANUAL MODE. You still have to manually shift on time and in the right gear. If you shift too soon? Not enough power. Too late? Not enough linear tirque for a good performance duration. ManUal mode works purely as a manual without a clutch. You're talking like there's power on tap once in MANUAL mode. Not exactly buddy.
