So to make a long story short, I'm now driving manual!...all be it poorly lol. Naw not really, I haven't stalled since the second day I had it which was this past Sunday. But my point is I was fortunate to have had the automatic and now the manual to compare to and both are great choices. Its technically win win. In my area traffic really isnt so bad and the land is mostly flat so I figured I could get away with a manual and even learn it on a new car. I read a thread about a guy going in for service and saw another FR-S there who apparently was already getting a clutch replacement! I can assure you all that won't be me anytime soon lol. Getting better everyday and loving it!
Just curious, why did you opt for the auto in the first place then change your mind later?
