I am curious as to why people knock non manual transmissions. "sports cars need to be manual or nothing" Last time i checked F1 and Nascar were race cars and I swear I didn't see them shifting the knob? I guess they are all lacking the "real driving experience and oneness with the car"
I have manual, SMG and automatic vehicles; they are all fun to drive and serve their purpose. I will leave it up to the test drive to see how the auto tranny puts down the power. If it can't deliver power like a manual tranny, then auto is out of the question. I am very curious to see how they can drop in an affordable/strong/responsive tranny in the ft-86. This car will be taken to redline daily and hopefully make my commute enjoyable!
P.S. I still try to teach everyone willing to learn, how to drive stick shift so it won't die!
