I know auto vs manual both have their pros and cons. An auto is faster, Yes.
I personally get bored driving an automatic to the point where id rather have someone drive me around. I feel more involved and focused with a manual, its personal and gratifying. id rather battle up hill traffic in the city with a manual any day over a auto. just saying from working 6 years in the city driving different cars/truck with manual trannys

You nailed it...........That is what it is all about ! That is why you drive A SPORTS CAR !

You want to try to slap me around ???????? No QUEER can slap me around !

Good grief. Drive what you're gonna drive.

AT is fine. It shifts quick and the driver is still engaged in the driving process when using the paddles or stick.

MT is lots of fun, for sure, but not exactly rocket science.

To each their own.

It's simple:

Automatic = Girl/Gay

Manual = Man/Awesome Girl

Uh... but... https://www.carthrottle.com/post/the...anual-ferrari/

That was some time ago. Unless something changed that I missed, three pedals are officially now less likely to be found in a "true" or "pure" sports car.

See further Alpha 4C, Lamborghini, the GT-R and so on.

Porsche did a limited release "purists" 911 I seem to recall...

I'll forgo revisiting in detail an observation I made some time ago that "perceived manual-ness" was seemingly more important than actual mechanical design, resultant performance, or actual (vs. perceived) control.

Yes but those cars are still manuals. They have something a 370z automatic does not, and are missing something that a 370z automatic does have. That makes all the difference.
