Have you inquired at the dealer of possibly trading in?
Just wondering, I'll be going down soon.

I know a few people deal with daily traffic in a MT, kudos to them, but a majority of people that tell me "you get used to traffic" they usually have a puny commute to work or are still in school and their idea of traffic is only once or twice a week.
So it comes down to you trying an MT, and what your daily weekday commute is. If my work commute was under 20mi or this was not my daily driver, I would definitely go MT.

Thanks for the advice. I did choose the auto in the first place because of traffic (I hate traffic). But I've came to realize that was pretty silly. I bought this car to enjoy, and don't commute (I work from home). The rare times I'm stuck in stop and go is usually when we're taking a trip and its rarely for very long. I've also read this manual is buttery smooth & not rough at all in traffic, so I'm leaning a lot towards it. That said, an auto definitely has advantages over a M/T in this regard.
Anyway, thanks everyone for the advice my mind is pretty much made up as long as I can get a decent deal some way or another... It'll be a PITA all around, but worth it if I can finally seal the deal!
