+1 to never being able to use the excuse "I missed a shift".

You just got beat by an automatic = priceless

 

No matter what, driving a manual car gives you more control and its alot more fun to drive!!

 

Yes, it is more fun to drive, but are you sure about that......... driving a manual gives you more control ? From a racing/strip sense consistent reaction goes to the automatic - less violent = more control. Just something for you to think about . Peace !

 

and no loss with time in between gears.

 

well, the honda I planned on going Automatic with has about 700whp and 500 trq so even thats a no go, thanks!

 

+1, automatic all the way.

Build boost off the line without a 2step, never miss a gear, WAY WAY more consistent, etc. the list just goes on and on, if the car is a track queen, no matter what kinda car it is, auto is the way to go..

 

i wont touch my car or put any money into it until i get it converted, ive thought about it a few times but then people would add in the fact that im a girl & assume i have an automatic b/c i cant drive... so ill leave that up to my boy shorty to do when he finds another auto hatch. he wants to go auto & turbo in a hatch but i wont give mine up & plan on converting it anyways. he has a camaro now but he wants a honda for a play toy. anyone who has a 92-95 hatch or even an old skewl hatch thats an auto f/s pm me so i can tell him about it (names shortyss on tr but hes never on)
