No need to make it more than it needs to be.

Thank You...

What good is this thread if I can't attack an AT driver on a personal level?

Yo momma so lame she can't even drive a manual transmission!

with all the "automatic" assisted electronics running on that GT3 you would have to be an extremely bad driver or slightly retarded to not be the fastest. He was probably reading the newspaper and sipping his latte at the same time as well. Point and step on the gas.

My neighbor has a nice bright orange GT3 but we haven't been on the same track together yet, hopefully this summer.

Also, I encourage you to seek an education because you clearly don't know how to spell correctly.

If you are so educated it seems like you would know the difference in a typo and grammar mistake.........

It is easier to replace a clutch than fixing an automatic transmission.

My friend, it is easier and cheaper to replace a clutch than fixing or replacing an automatic transmission.

I hear ya. I've replaced plenty of clutches in my time. I was merely pointing out that there seems to be a consistently ongoing issue with the 370's MT. As I've mentioned previously in this thread, until getting my Z last year, all I drove were MTs for 30 years. My choice was mainly practical, since my Z is a DD and I drive in a lot of stop-and-go traffic. That noted, having made the switch, I don't regret it, as the AT shifts quick/hard enough for my needs. As far as durability goes, I won't go FI, so I don't foresee any issues from "normal" driving, unlike the folks that chose the MT version.

At the end of the day, its a good car, whether you are rowing gears or monkeying with flappy paddles.

Did you spend all weekend on the porch shouting at the 'dang kids', old man? You probably just have AT because your knees are giving out. Or maybe your momma dressed you up like a girl growing up, and that's why you can't drive a manual
