Second, it's pedal

Nothing that dude posts makes any sense. Proper sentence structure and grammar were apparently not part of his education.

We do need to add peddle and pedal to tiggas thread though

Manual isnt lame. Manual is ******* fun.
However if you did not see it in the future that autos would eventually get faster thn manuals thn u were living in a cave.
Also there are many reasons people buy autos. Convenience is one of those factors.
I do knw how to drive manual, i initially wanted to buy a manual, unfortunately there was a 2 month wait, but now few months down the line, i do not regret my decision.
Manuals are definitely more fun.
Autos however are faster only because technology.
Even if its not technology, i highly doubt that everyone can do a perfect shift every single time at every single gear.i know i cant.
Autos, well they can.

Thank you for being the grammar nazi there jar. Unfortunately my smart phone isn't very smart with the auto correct Feature in which we all love.

I can also drive a manual and have driven plenty of them anywhere ranging from a mustang gt, an rx7, and the old 3 on the tree Chevelle. Driven a deuce and half in the military too.
Don't get high and mighty over your pansyassed hydraulic assisted little Short throw manuals that all cars have these days. They are almost as easy to drive as the autos.

My pleasure

I never said you hadn't driven MTs before. I just said you don't know how

LOL ... you call my hydraulic assisted manual pansyassed yet it is less assistance than is provided by an AT. Once again, you lose!

Every single thing your saying about wheel hop, tire spin, etc is driver error. You don't make any sense... Get 10 years or so of driving experience on a track with a manual transmission and maybe you will understand why the one in the 370z sucks. You automatic guys act like you have the same transmission as the GTR.

I'm sorry that your dad bought you an automatic, because he knew you couldn't drive a stick.

This thread keeps popping up in my control panel and when I come in all I see are the same comments rehashed over and over. Pretty much a "my **** is bigger than your ****" said in a hundred different ways. Good way to pass time while at work I guess?

[vividracing]

I know how to drive stick, I just didn't get a manual because I like to focus on actually driving, and if I'm tracking I'd lose focus and pay too much attention to shifting, pressing the clutch, rev matching and such. My BRZ has a Manual mode with paddle shifters so I can do the same thing without using a clutch.

If I'm driving on the road I like not having to worry about shifting, just enjoying the ride. I don't care if people don't like its not a manual, it's my car, not yours! Go away, lulz.

Plus Automatics are getting better and better, with dual clutches and such.
