What was the reason you put the auto in it in the first place? Just trying something different?

Serious track car would be an auto though!

^^^^ what he said. I am keeping my car manual strickly for the fun factor. Mine will not be a drag car, just a weekend toy, so getting every last tenth is not that important to me.

If anyone has never seen this car in person, its definitely a must see. The car is so clean and straight. The 1/4 windows look brand new and all of the mouldings outside of the car do as well. The car really is super clean and straight.
