Why if you had the choice, and you did because you bought a brand new car, did you not get a pure manual transmission? I dunno, it never makes sense to me why people do this, it's just so much more fun to drive a manual. You don't race anyone, so it doesn't matter that the transmission can shift faster at all lol. To each their own I guess... |
Trust me, it's plenty fun. :D It's even got the silly quasi-manual shift on the left side which I have never felt the slightest inkling of a need to use.
Oh, I realize that stick is fun for a lot of people, and I'd never want to take that away from them, but I've just never cared that much, personally. Then again, I bought a sedan instead of a coupe because I actually wanted to be able to fit groceries in the trunk or attach a bike rack. I like a car that's fast and handles well, but those factors don't dwarf practical concerns.
As far as I'm concerned it's a silly debate; I don't think autos are better or faster, and if you like stick, drive stick. I prefer to have my right hand free so I can bitch-slap anyone who yells "WATCH OUT FOR THAT TRUCK!" or asks me to change the music. |

Well I barely drive it right now because of the weather. I have so much in the trunk because it slips and slides all over the road but as soon as the weather gets nicer we will meet up for sure!!! |

The Crossfire I was looking at sold today, goddamnit. I was going to take a trip out to look at it.
Also, one particular Z I've been eyeing up turns out to be a US car... Still a decent deal, but no warranty now, and it's only 3 years old.
Finally, I've been coaxed into seriously checking out a silver '05 S2000 tomorrow in Brampton. Here's hoping I decide I can tolerate it. |

Does anyone know any sites where you can select rims, and then see how they look on specific cars?
I know www.tirerack.com has this, but I've already went through the rims on there and I want to see more lol. |

Consider this fate doing you a favour and pointing you towards the S2000.
It's a way better car than the Crossfire. |

I will agree. S2000 is the most exciting, reliable, and lunatic car to drive (if theres a budget) however, the s2000 ends in 2009.
the crossfire is completely rubbish.
the new 370z SHOULD be better then the awful previous 350z.
and anything infiniti is garbage. |
