RE: S-197 Transmission type
I'm a stick guy, but only because I'm a street hooligan, and like to do burnouts, get sideways, harass and **** off the general public...and stick is better for "doing tricks." Now if I were more of a racer I'd have gotten an auto and some drag radials so I could be consistent as hell (just like my old z28...man my grandma could've run a mid 13 in that car...)
...ideally I want (at least) one of each...lol...

Sticks may be 'fun', but only at certain times.
Had I known that autos could be so heavily changed with the addition of a tune I would've gone with an automatic... They aren't really even slower once they have a tune.

RE: S-197 Transmission type
if you have an auto try this- shift it manually! Roll down your windows, because when you upshift you'll be able to shift at higher rpms. This creates that great sound! It's like night and day. It's really fun being able to cruise along on the street in 2nd but with the high torque just flooring it gives great pickup and great sound!
