Driving stick since 83 tnen 2 years in the 2LTRS A6. But the SS is a M6 again, sorry to me it is just more fun, more control and better in the twistys

M6 for me.

I feel like I'm driving a car with a manual tranny, and just riding in one with an auto.

To each his own...

Your Sweetie can't drive a Stick?? Thats in your Favor - Now you get to drive your Camaro more .

Last time I attended one of our Stick Driving Prodigy meetings we all agreed that we are much better than everyone else. In fact our Manual Minsa group leader agreed that we are all superior to all auto drivers.

Can't spell manual without MAN.

We all know why PQ prefers the Automatic. He only has one arm!

Manual...Stick...Manual...MAN...Stick...?

So does driving a manual make you gay-ish?

Food for thought.

No no no! Like I said, Auto! The only real racing is drag racing! There is no need for that archaic stick anymore. Besides, auto is ALWAYS faster at the drags.
I get the 2 pedal medal every time!

Drag racing with an auto should be banned... What skill does it take to stand on a gas pedal?

Driving a manual makes you an integral part of the vehicle. it keeps you involved in the act of driving, forcing you to pay more attention to driving, keeping you safer on the road... But don't worry, for those of you who are unable to learn the complex skills required to drive a manual, or for those who are lazy, or for those who can't possibly find any joy whatsoever in the art of the drive, they will confine to make auto trans vehicles... Just for you.

Oh, I drive an LS3
