my 09 was a six speed and then my 12 became and auto. I have no problem with driving either. I actually enjoy the auto a bit more I really like the paddles, you should get bothered or even care what others think. Just drive your car and have fun with it.
And I'm sure right after you will get your *** kicked because only ******* by autos

This has become the dumbest thread on this forum. Think about what that really means. On a forum that counts Synolimit and Chii370 amongst its members, this is now officially the single dumbest thread. I award all of you no points, and may God have mercy on your souls.

Best. *******. Post. Ever.

I don't care if a professional driver can take a 7AT 0.6 seconds or whatever faster around some racetrack none of us will ever be on. Unless you're racing the question is irrelevant. I drive on the street and the 6MT is more fun for me.

There's a lot more things to worry about in life than what kind of transmission your car has. If it breaks just fix it, don't like it -> get a new car
Imagine if you found out you got cancer today and only have 6 months to live, would you care about this thread? Or if somebody burned your house down and murdered your family

If I lived on the Blue Ridge parkway it would be a manual. If I lived in downtown Atlanta where you are in stop and go traffic all the time....automatic. My wife has sciatica and I need for her to be able to drive the z when I need rear seats....automatic.

One size doesn't fit all.

My response to 99% of the people so far who have rairailed against the auto? (22 yo step kids, 14 son):

"Your unskilled arse can't drive a manual worth a shat anyway."

i do love when the MT boys will comment with something to the degree of the AT's being faster or better BUT they fall back on "real drivers use manual" or "it's not driving unless you're driving a MT".

so sad.

you're all fuckin clown shoes.
