the transmissions were slightly different in the 4th gens between v-6 and v-8 and 93-97 and 98-02

because you dont give into that bullisht high school mentality that its not a real car if it isnt a manual. just like the "die-hard v-8" people saying they were going to get the v-8 no matter what the price, then the price came out and "oh, well I guess Ill get the v-6..... cus its still pretty badass"
does it matter in the end what someone else buys for their personal needs and preferences if it is different than you? no. and just so you know, a friend of mine is a parapelegic and drives stick. he runs 10s in his trans am. lol

heres the best question. why the hell do you care if someone wants to buy an auto over a manual? i mean, unless that would make you less of a man to not drive stick?

that all depends on the driver's skill. i think i might start a tally of the number of Camaro related accidents after the car is released.
