[OFFICIAL] Manual v. Automatic Thread

[old guy]

After reading many pages in this thread ( which goes back to 09 and has 121 pages ) it all adds up to ‘each his own’!
For me it was a simple decision, before I bought my Z, I read as much on this forum as possible and the things that kept popping up were
Chattering clutch
Throw out berig noise
Needing different pedal springs
And the way too often was the csc failures and the $2,000 upgrade/fix
Really couldn’t enjoy a new car if you come out of a restaurant and have no clutch!
On a different subject, avoided buying an 09/11 because of the steering lock issue, hate getting stranded!
