It was pretty when there weren't 9,000,000 replica's out there. Kind of a boring car now. |

I drive a 6MT, but I don't judge people who drives 7AT. It's true 6MT is more fun.. but nothing wrong with 7AT  Don't worry about people juding you... If a person judge you by the transmission... then he/she is an idiot. |

Your insecure about your 7AT? Man I wish someone would talk **** about me driving a 7AT. Not that i'm a tough guy but at the same time I wouldn't care or take crap from a random person and wha they thought of me and my car.

I love my 7AT, it's a personal preference
I am a very skilled Manuel driver but there is something about the 7AT and what it feels like when your hanging the curves downshifting or upshifting with the paddles,

I love my 7AT, but would probably love a 6MT just a little more. The 7AT, however, saves me the occasional embarrassment of missing a 2-3 shift when it counts. I married outside my bracket, so I had to concede the transmission, which was probably a good call at the end of the day.

Pfft... who misses shifts? Rookies...  I've done this a couple of times this past week.  Though, one was due to me watching this chick jog across the street...

I am very impressed with the 7AT. Shifts are fairly quick considering it is not a DCT and produces epic downshifts when paired with an exhaust. Overall I am pleased with it and I can throw it into D whenever I just want to take it easy.

Had my Auto for over a year now and love it!! Feels like I can always just downshift launch and go!!! People always tell me "Man that thing really grabs off the line, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd......You just can't shift your 6speed as fast period.

You guys are making me wish I would have at least test driven the 7AT...lol. I'm pretty happy with my 6MT though!
