Was wondering am i the only guy here who has a automatic Z here haha. Dont get me wrong i know how to drive a stick but when i bought the car I wasnt to confident with stick then. Thats maybe the only mistake i made when i bought my Z other then that i love my BABY hehe

 

AT and check this out https://my350z.com/forum/body-interior-exterior-and-lighting-diy/160886-how-to-shift-knob-for-5at.html

 

AT Here. They're both really fun to drive so I have no regrets. I love technology so I love the fact that I have a computer controlling the shifts when I tell it to. But be prepared to be harassed by the MTers lol. They generally don't understand why people get AT. :-P

 

I've been shifting gears on my motorcycles since I was about 6 years old. I used to practice driving my moms manual s13 240sx when I was 14. I was driving an alfa romeo the day I turned 16. I spent about 3-4 years driving a turbo diesel bobtail for a living. Shifting gears is what I love to do. If I'm going to get a vehicle with an automatic, it sure as hell won't be a sports car, unless maybe I lost a leg, and even then I'm not sure. An automatic transmission IMO is a luxury, or for lazy/unskilled drivers. Keep telling yourselves you bought a luxurious sports car.

LET THE FLAMING BEGIN

 

blah blah blah this topic = anyway but AT or MT is strictly personal prefrence

 

Beating a dead horse does not do this thread justice....

 

No it sure dosen't

 

Auto here.

 

Oh boy. Manual vs Automatic War XXXVII. Someone please PM me the results. Appreciated.

 

Auto here and no regrets. One of reasons I got an auto is because of all threads on here about problematic manual trannies.

 

My camry is an auto. Been driving it for 7 years.


oh WAIT....the Z? Its a stick...been driving it for almost a year!!! I love it.

 

Manual transmission for the win. I've been driving MT since I was 15. Something about a computer timing your shifts doesn't sit with me. I just don't see the point of getting a sports performance vehicle thats not MT.

Thats my .02 Cents. =D

 

I have paddle shifters

 

time to trade it in!

 

ok im totally going to **** people off, but does anyone else think that people that do this should sign up for

 

no the auto still has a shifter and u can shift the auto like a stick so no

 

It's a tie everyone's car sux.

 

"for lazy/unskilled drivers" What!!!???!!!
Fiat Spyder- stick
RX7- stick
Porsche 944 turbo s- stick

Blown out back- no more stick

When you are young and dumb, you think that you'll never get hurt and you do stupid things. Later you may realize how silly this makes you sound.
I've been driving sports cars since before you were probably born. One mistake and that could end for you too my friend.

 

Stick, and i do agree with what some say that its sort of pointless getting an AT sports car , did you know that every time.....
