Nice pictures, and a nice little review.

I can't think of anything negative about the auto trans in the FR-S.

I can think of three easy ones right off the bat . . . it's slower, heavier, and more expensive.

The 'slower' part may not be a fault with the transmission technology (more a result of the crappier gearing), but it's still slower.

If they're so stuck on older shit technology they should give up their CD's for cassette tapes.

The problem with your analogy is that cassette's don't perform better than CD's . . . and in 19 out of 20 cars a manual WILL perform better than it's automatic counterpart.
I have no problem with someone wanting an automatic and enjoying it - just don't kid yourself about it's advantages.
