Girls for automatics. Men for stick shifts. Oh yea Baby If you can drive nothing beats a manual trans. I still miss my old Doug Nash five speed.

Ray, Ray, I've seen some of the vids that the ricer bois post up. Seems that ricer gurls have a penchant for stick shifts (shifters) too. That's why I'm puting a T-5 in my 2.3t project. It's not gonna be that bad assed so I like to leave all other possibilities open. Momma didn't raise no foo!

I prefer automatics, they are more expensive and they take the whole driver equation out of it.
That hand-eye thing is so confusing.

5sped or auto with shift kit
How much HP are you looking to put down? To me that if the breaking factor in the 5spd vs auto debate. Once you get around 500 and above the stick becomes quite a chore on the street. Even with sticky tires....
