    That sucks. I have never and will never own an automatic car, it's just too boring and you feel detached from what you're doing.

    I wish my car could magically turn into an Evo X. If you'll take mine, you'd have a 6 speed manual and I could get an Evo! Deal?

    the 6-speed is fun, but to be honest I sometimes wish I had a dsg (of course not a normal auto).... It gets tiresome around these hilly areas to continuously shift from traffic, or a hill, or pedestrians, etc...

    huh honestly i used to have 01gt eclipse with nos custom paint job lowered black paint and some other goodies it was a stick. It was fun to drive and everything but living in chicago i decided to buy my a4 in tip. Main advantages of driving tip in my opinion are
    1-you dont get pissed as fuck in traffic
    2-you can just relax and play with the radio (ahhh i love my sub)
    3-you can drive in a traffic and hold your ladies hand at the same time.
    4-you don’t have to change gears while some girls is sucking your ...............finger:)
    5 imagine yourself rich on the highway in a traffic drinking coffee wearing suit what transmission do you see driving ? lol (those not apply to me)
    6-ever since i got my tip i stopped putting money in my car.
    7- i stopped racing other people (before i got arrested for street racing 125 on a 35)


    advantages of manual
    1-quicker
    2- more fun to drive

    I drive a manual and really enjoy it no traffic or traffic. My last car was an auto and I regretted getting an auto for the longest time. Sure it gets tiresome driving a manual in traffic (specially on the way to and at NYC), but the experience for me is well worth it.

    A true DSG or Sequential-Manual gearbox is my favorite thing. Hence why the best Ferrari's sport the "F1" transmission.

    However, in spite of any offers of either I opt for the 6-speed under all circumstances.

    Re: I wish i could magically turn my car into a 6 speed Manual.

    at first I got really bored with tiptronic, as it can encourage lazy driving as you dont have to pay as much attention to shifting, but I always keep it in tip. However I am only 17 years old, and I will definitely get a manual once I drive for a few more years lol
