Make that "pedal dance" and you have it.

Combine the sport mode with an ecutek tune from HRI Tuning and a header and you'll find an even bigger grin on your face.

I have the 6MT and love it, but man this is way off base. I test drove the AT, put about 120 miles on it and like everyone else who test drove this car before buying it (if they got it alone) drove it like they just stole it. IDK about you, but I had absolutely no problem getting the ass out on dry roads in manual mode within 3 minutes of driving the car. It is absurdly easy to slide this thing and act like a general asshole on public roads.

If getting sideways around corners driving through a development next to a row of minivans and priuses (pri'i?) doesn't meet your definition of "hooning around", I would really like to know what does. Because you can sure as hell do that in the AT.

I was thinking the same thing when I read that post.

If traction control is off, there is no problem "hooning" around in an AT...

There actually haven't been many MT fanboys here... I think everyone before your post were just talking about the manual (paddle shifter) mode on the AT.

Don't forget it makes your 86 side badges light up and activate so they tap into those extra hp's just like those big stickers on a Civic do.

BTW, other day I saw a few Ford stickers on a Civic.... yeah....
