I don't remember the OP asking anything besides age and tranny. Nothing about which is best. BTW, you never mentioned your age, im' guessing pretty young.

Impress has nothing whatsoever in my decision. The fact that in my opinion Camaro is a sports car even if it is a bit bulky and heavy. And my opinion is that a sport or performance car is much more responsive with a manual. And a hell of a lot more fun.
Nothing aimed at you Super, just used your comment as a catalyst for mine.

It is personal preference. The Auto and Manual has it's pros and cons like any other choice we make in life.
Aren't you contradicting yourself there? If it's personal preference, then why are you so angry at someone elses preference.. In another one of your posts, I think you mentioned not knowing how to drive a stick. Try sometime, maybe your preference would based on experience rather than the fact that you have only experienced one or the other. You are right in one regard. Muscle has nothing to do with it anyway. The fastest 1/4 mile is done with an auto in funny cars and rails and that's some serious muscle. Track cars usually have stick for reliablilty and control.

BTW, 51, SS/RS M6 because that's my preference
