What's the difference between the LS3 and the L99 ..... 26HP? No big deal if you ask me. An auto will blow the doors off any manual, any day.

Besides, the auto has remote start, the manual doesn't. And with the "tap-shift" controls, you can drive an auto like a manual. That's what sold me on the auto trans.

No clutch pedal = not even remotely close to driving a manual.
It's an automatic gearbox with a torque converter.

I'm in the sports cars should have a stick club. The only times I wish I had an auto is if I get stuck in traffic and since gm won't sell me the blue tooth module I don't like when I get a phone call and I don't have it already connected to the aux jack.

It all depends on if u can drive a manual and if ur in a Ton of stop and go traffic. Manual is alot more fun driving fast and shifting gears urself and driving in spirited manner but it becomes a chore when ur not on it alot and just sitting in traffic. If i didnt live in a area with a ton of traffic i would have gotten manual but since i do, My knees and feet and my stress level is much happier with a auto. And ull never miss a shift or accidently choose a wrong gear.
