If you enjoy an automatic Z, that's all that matters. Let ME take a guess and at the risk of sounding sexist, you're married and the only way your wife can justify you making the purchase is if she can drive it too, i.e automatic. Just a hunch!

hahaha, well, it's good to be young at heart.

i am married, i have 2 kids, my wife does not drive MT, she does not go to my cars' bedroom (aka garage). all 3 of my cars are MT. the dd she drives is in my name, not that she can't afford her own car, and it's the only AT i have. she's not a car person so has no interest in driving my Z.

Vegitto how many miles on them? I usually clean every 15k miles or so. You need to remove your bumper and remove the cones, follow the simple directions on the cleaning kit.

Pulled out from under the carport into the drizzle left from a thunderstorm, rinsing off most of the pollen...yellow and red make...yech!
A quick zip up I-185 and I-85 at speed, then into work and then home with a fresh coat of pollen.
