dude autos rule. i hate when ppl put down an auto. i ahve one although i too would prefer a 5 speed but i don't dislike the auto. you can make them faster or atleast sift better than standards. the only real thing you'll lack is the fun of driving a stick but as far as mods go its all good. i ran a 14.3 stock. now i have alot of bolt-ons and hope to be mid to low 13's by spring
