I have meet plenty of automatic Z owners & really it is about owning the car, not what transmission you have.

Unfortunately you have to be carefull when making threads such as these, with a little search you would've seen other threads, like these locked. That would've been a clue of of a hot topic.. We don't need threads that are going to pit memebers against each other here! so please take the time to search and if not sure pm the Admin or senior member on the thought of such a questionably thread. Thank You and Have a nice day.

I have an auto simply because I've driven a manual for the last 10 years and am tired of all the effort, but am glad to have the paddles and the option of shifting if I want to raise a little hell.

Why, to spank the manuals of course. So how long before the lock?

Haha my friends sometimes laugh @ me for driving auto. I just remind them that they're driving civics, and all of a sudden the laughter stops.
