I looked at a 5 speed vert when I was shopping, but I got a 5 speed coupe instead. Verts look good with the top down, but with it up not so good....IMO
+1

That and I think they look nekkid without a light bar and tonneau cover. 05+ verts look like bathtubs with windshields, methinx.[:'(]

Takes a littlemore work to make a vert handle as well as a coupe. That probably doesn't matter to anyone here, though.....[>:]

Stalled Autos are fast off the line, but otherwise are typically slower. Verts are a little heavier, blah, blah, blah....doesn't matter. Get what you want and think hard about what you have planned for it.

Reading all of these "Auto vs. Stick" threads makes me ashamed to be a part of these forums..... So many naive highschoolers

And honestly.... Making a thread like this... All you are going to get is opinions... Yes the Auto is a sluggish .1 slower in the 1/4 bone stock than the stick and the vert is maybe another .1-.2 slower......

Its all personal preferance... Get what you want.
how does this sound like high schooler? lol random

and Murillo os a GReat uner from what i hear. he builds some sick rides. I would deal mostly with lethal performance tho they are bad ***

To be honest, you don't seethis kinda crap over at SVTP....

No "what's the best exhaust?", "can I put an Eaton on my 2V?" or "what's the biggest tire can I get on a stock rim" either.....

I think this site is a little more fun though. Some of the crap some kids here say is funny as hell....

Very condensending comment. Honestly, if you don't give a **** about the thread's subject, skip it! People here have the right to ask about whatever they want. How else are they supposed to learn? [>:]
