No boost yet though. Called Stillen for a price last week. I did just finish installing my exhaust about 10 min ago

not at all. track experience is a thing all in itself regardless of transmission.

Can you buy the Nismo in any year in automatic?
If the answer is no.....
Then close this thread please
That will finalize everything to do with M6 vs A7 or in other words...
Man vs Amateur

Can't buy them with nav either. I guess they realized if they really want to sell them is to add the nav and auto for the smart guys. They made the Nismos better from this and yes keep the thread open.

Very, very true. This thread was started in 09 and its still being debated

The only way you should be allowed to drive an auto sports car off the lot is if you have lady parts

If by better you mean making it no longer a special edition and no more Nismo registry number, then sure
