At the end of the day, I don't need to drive stick to prove I have one.

Edit: also I find it's usually people who either a)drive a shit box or b) people who know fuck all about cars, but know just enough to be able to tell me a sports car should be manual.

I see your point about getting tired of people and their opinions.

I resolve people talking shit about he automatic by taking them for a drive in mine and then letting them drive it while I ride with them.

Every single person who has mouthed off and then driven my car has said they wished they had test driven the auto.

But I'm not even sure the OP is reading this. If you are, go drive them both.

I bought my auto because I wanted a faster car around the track - and I'm faster.
