Yes, its possible, but personally, I have a problem with getting sleepy when driving an auto, makes my drives back and forth from college every weekend rather dangerous, I really need to have something that both hands are focused on, luckily I found a puzzlebox that I can do with only my right hand, so I just work on that on my way home and off......

Yes, I'm weird.....

Oh yea and 19 going manual when I'm able to get mine.

I was just making a snarky reply to the "only way to go" comment. I am a music buff, so am always changing my music, would suck if I had to shift and try to change music especially since I live in the NYC area with all the traffic. I would need a third arm/hand.

33 years old- Ordered the auto, although I would really have liked to go with a manual. Due to an unfortunate wreck about 10 years back in which I was a passenger, that is no longer an option for me. Prior to that I was a steadfast manual driver and have really missed it. I'm pretty jazzed about the tapshift option though as I think it will give me at least somewhat of the sensation of being the one in control of things.

you really dont shift that often it doesnt require much effort at all once u get use to it.. and besides how long does it actually take to shift a gear 1 maybe 2 seconds if u mess up? I have a manual and change music just fine...

45 years... Ordered a Manual. I plan on driving this car till i die. As I get older, I still want to be able to drive it! However, since I am disabled military and the other leg could go sometime down the road... (It is had to drive a standard with an injured leg!) SO... Upgraded to Automatic! It is STILL gonna be a HECK of a ride!

Buy an mp3 player with a remote((like the psp I use for my music)) and then slap it on top of the stick!

Shift the car with you hand, and shift the music with your thumb
