Thats why i'm getting the auto. I do a vertical leg on legs days of 1080lbs....after lifting that my legs are sorta off balance so its already hard to go easy on the peddel so press any thing else like shifting would kill me.

At first I thought I screwed up getting the auto but now with almost 500 miles the tranny seems to be learning my driving habits and I really like it. So to answer your question I would order the auto again.

I had a manual 93 Jetta and it had no power, so I was constantly shifting to stay in the power band. When I ordered my G5 I got it auto, cause I was sick of all the shifting and I wanted a remote start for winter. Three years later and I was really missing having a manual.

Now I have my 2SS and it's a stick and I love it. By the time I get sick of driving manual, the weekend is over and it's time to put her away and pull out the G5 again.

So I guess I would say get a 2SS manual for your weekend warrior and an auto something else for your DD
