Good article He mentions manual transmission versus auto with paddle shift. He doesn't elaborate on his comment.. I understand it but when your going to be stuck in LA traffic half the time an auto transmission just makes sense...

Yeah WTF. The "wimpy imitation sports car" Supra Turbo soundly beated the "real sports cars" known as the 512 Testarossa and the 911 Turbo in R&T's handling tests.
