So was out test driving this weekend (think i'm near ready to buy... soon... ). Was surprised that I dug the automatic (in sports mode) more than the manual. While the manual has probably one of the best shifters i've messed with, I just couldn't 'get' the clutch at all (Everything after 1st gear... no matter how fast/slow i engage the clutch, I just can't get it smoothly
). Maybe I'm skewed because the 4speed automatic in my prizm is kinda horrid, but auto brz... good stuff.
+ new constructions and what not makes my daily commute oh so more painful makes me gravitate more to the auto :S
Are there any large cons for the automatic besides the usual boohahaha between manual vs auto? Auto will still be a blast to wiggle around mountain roads right?
