At, Soooooo Much Nicer To Sit Back Relax And Mash The F***'n Gas!! Still Pretty Quick, Selecting Gears With Theautomatic Isn't Anywhere Close To As Responsive As A 6sp Manual. Still A Fun Car And Handles Great.

For all those guys who are saying its not a REAL sports car unless you get manual, they're like the extremist Al Qaeda of Z owners. I still have fun driving my car even though its auto. I don't know if the older models have the auto shifter, but if you get a 07+ model you can still have a slightly lesser manual experience. I think of it as if I'm playing a video game shifting up and down with the flick of my wrist
Get what you feel is right for you and don't let anyone's opinion sway you from your decision. Happy hunting!

It's all about preference buddy. My Z is a daily driver and I have to deal with stop and go traffic so A/T was the best choice for me.

Using that little shift thing you are talking about is teh ghey! I got no problem if you choose an auto car, just don't try to make it into something its not. You giving another guy head is the only thing you can do that is more queer than pretending you have a manual.
Stop and go traffic. Stop it! I have a 150 mile a day commute and I still bought a manual for my DD.

I JUST learned to drive stick and didn't stall once. Until i tried dumping the clutch at 3500rpm. Just messing around though. It made my auto xterra seem so lame. I cant wait to sell it and buy a z within a year or so. STICK all the way! It was so fun, even though I was in a 4 bangin' Saturn Astra Coupe ha ha. You just feel one with the car. Best experience ever.

The standard S2000, Lotus Elise, Evo IX's and z06 must be the Crimson Jihad of cars then?
BTW - Let's not close this MT/AT thread or newbs will start a new one. We have this under control!!

Considering all the stupid chit you post, I could give a *** what you have to say. Did your vag get hurt by my comment? Are you one of the pole smokers that drives an auto and pretends you have a manual?

They have got the right idea. Don't water your sports down car to cater to lazy drivers. Me personally I want to feel like I am driving a sports car, not playing a video game.

obviously you do since you took the time and responded to it. as for being upset, seems you are the one that is hurt. i mean, you had to resort to grade school playground namecalling and personal attacks to respond. also, before you start talking about "stupid posts" maybe you should read your own first

Combination of what the car will primarily be used for and simply what you prefer. I like 6mt because they tend to be less problematic that autos, less expensive when buying new, and just provide a more interesting (if not faster) experience.

seriously.LMAO. That is the best you have? Dude, shut the *** up before I pull up pages of worthless chit that you have said. Like the hundred of failed attempts you have made to stop people asking for advice on what they should do to their car. Didn't you even start a thread crying about that? Do you have "Do what YOU want with YOUR car" saved somewhere so all you have to do is copy and paste it? But hey, keep it up, you are making a huge difference.
Still curious how many pedals you have in your floorboard. I still think you put it in N, rev the crap out of your engine and drop it into D so you can catch a cool wheel.
