Yes, yes, automatics have progressed enough to catch up to even the savviest of manual transmission users. You know what? I bought it with the 6-speed gearbox because I wanted to have it. I'm not getting paid to go around a track the fastest, so that "oh auto is faster anyway" has nothing on me.

So NYAH. lol
