+1. Also, maybe I'm ignorant, but can't a good driver get through the gears just a quickly as someone with an Auto. If I didn't care about my tranny, I could bang gears like it was an auto. I used to drive like that all the time in various other cars. At any rate, I've never taken my car to the track, and wouldn't drive an automatic if you paid me.

Unless your a pro level driver AND the trans has been Pro-Shifted (Google if you don't know) there is no way you will shift as fast as an auto with a full manual VB.

From my experience manuals require less $$$$$$$ to have, Auto trans have way too much stuff to contribute to their failure compaired to a manual. (seals,clutches,gummed valvebody,hanging valves,line pressure,throttle pressure,tps,rande and speed sensors filters coolers) AOD/AODE/4R series
I don't like any of them IMO

Mine is AOD because I commute an hour each way to work. I agree that stick is much more fun to drive. However, with an auto, you can stay at full boost all the way down the track.
