actually u dont miss out anything really...
I drove both automatic and manual.. i used to have a honda s2000 but now i am riding automatic 350z roadster... it is fun to shift back and forth with the manual.. u also get the rear u want right away...and the sound the engine made when u step on the gas is great but the automatic z sound great, i can also shift with auto/manual shifter...altho i cannot get the gear i want right away but ... i dont mind since traffic in california are crazy..i rather have automatic...
beside... the speed limit is 65 mph... automatic or manual.. i still have to obey the law.. sometimes i went 120 but that is a different story.. i am trying to say that with automatic or manual i still go from 0-65 roughly the same time... i am not a racer and i am sure many of u are not too.. so couple seconds.. what difference does it make??
plus if u have a wife or a daughter or a sister that want to drive your car and cant because it is mannual... u will feel bad about it...maybe u guys are rich u can buy both but some people are poor... or maybe they just put their family before them...
yet Z is more like a personal car but the majority of the time ur family member will want to drive it also..
so automatic is great for people with difficulties...mannual is for carefree ppl

So I am rich because I can afford a car for myself and my wife on a two person income?
How do you define people who buy 2 seater convertibles?

i have had my 03 DB w/ 5AT for almost 4 years now. its a fun car to drive but i do wish i had gotten a 6MT. even though i can drive in manual mode, you just never get that feeling of having a manual. I plan on eventually replacing it with a G35 or G37 w/ 6MT.
