Imagine this chase scene if these cars were auto trans. The coolness factor would be lost.

Check out the 28' Chevy Sedan at 2:28 min in.

The only factory camaro Auto that is quicker than a manual is the ZL1 because it has a prestaged computer shifter.

Manual, because I knew my husband wouldn't drive it then...

Darth_Emma · 07-26-2012, 10:59 PM

Automatic because they're faster.

in constant stop and go traffic i rarely even remember shifting, unless i am punching it or something- its just second nature now

Auto. Because I don't know how to drive a manual and my parents (here come the flames) didn't like the idea of buying a car I couldn't drive. I guess just a little nervous to learn on a new car. My next car will be a manual!

M6 = it’s a Camaro
M6 = its 426HP
M6 = I can rev it up how I wish and listen to it growl
M6 = I can say its an M6
M6 = I can listen to Bell squeak when I properly shift from 1st to 2nd
Bell is my protective rubber rat with a fuzzy orange tail and bell that squeaks when its compressed. Its kinda cool when the little bell rings when you shift gears.

Automatic.

Because I'm lazy.

Atleast I'm honest, lol.

Auto NOVA Traffic that is really all i need to say. I love how people quote times like they are super pro race drivers that will actually get 12.9 in the 1/4 mile in their first go down the track. Have u seen the numbers posted here for bone stock manual camaros down the track for the first few times, not many near 12.9 anyways i will say i do prefer manual when there is no traffic maybe when i have a second car and the Z28 comes out in the 6th gen ill have a manual or ATS V series coupe.
